Hi Maykel,
Don't confuse me for an expert, but I have been dealing with Broadcom issue on
a recycled dell laptop.
According to the wiki, Broadcom devices have been historically difficult for
Linux developers to work with. Replacement hardware could be a better option,
but in the meantime wireless seems to work in my case using the "dkms" package.
If Installing this you should read the following:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dynamic_Kernel_Module_Support
Adding a dkms package will change your update procedure, sometimes making
additional work for pacman.
In case you didn't find the MacBook-specific wiki page, which also mentions
Broadcom issues, try looking around here:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MacBookPro11,x
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MacBookPro7,1
Also, this topic is on numerous BBS threads, so you may want to try a google
search, such as: "broadcom macbook 4331 site:bbs.archlinux.org" .
Hope this helps,
Brad
