Not driver - the driver is part of the kernel. That package installs the firmware.

I have snipped the rest of your posting - it looked normal.

Check the settings on your AP to make sure it is not set for "G - only". The 
BCM4303 is an 802.11b device (note above), thus you need the "802.11 B/G" 
setting, whatever it is called for your AP.

My BCM4303 works fine with WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption.
