The BCM4322 driver is still unsupported by the b43 driver, according to
this page: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43

So yes, you will unfortunately have to purchase a new wireless device.

See h-node.com to find a wifi card that works with a free system. Note
that nearly any recent Atheros wireless-g or wireless-n card will work
with Trisquel out of the box.
