Your wifi device is different, so it would have been better if you
started a new thread.

Broadcom BCM4313 [14e4:4727] has been problematic. I refer you to a
recent conversation on the ELRepo mailing list that has dealt with
getting this device working on EL 6.3.  It is a long thread entitled
"[elrepo] Broken kmod-compat-wireless package":

http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2012-August/thread.html#1350

You may want to jump to:

http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2012-August/001375.html

and then to:

http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2012-August/001375.html

In essence, you install the kmod-compat-wireless package from the
ELRepo testing repo and some udev rule files. At least 2 people
reported success. The udev files will eventually be incorporated into
the kmod package but that has not happened as of this writing.

If you need further assistance, I suggest you join the ELRepo mailing list.
