I can't seem to get my wifi working and I feel i've exhausted google's search capabilities.
Here is the output of lspci for the device

As you can see, there is no kernel driver associated with it, and I have no idea how to get one associated with it. I'm using debian 7.8. I know that the correct kernel driver for it is the wl module, which I have installed but for some reason it doesn't associate with that network card.
here is modprobe debug output:

Is there something like /lib/modules/3.2.0-4-amd64/modules.alias that I'm supposed to update?
