Broadcom's stuff is horribly supported in Linux, and I don't think they ever released a driver for the 4313. You're probably better off finding a supported card.

Actually the support for Linux Broadcom is not even the best!

And so far, support Broadcom not responded to my e-mail!

I was thinking of buying a USB wireless adapter, but I doubt the chipset is natively supported by the kernel. In this country the most common are: Atheros wn422g and Edimax 7318.

If you check Linux Wireless, that will be the most comprehensive listing of what is supported by the kernel.
