I am a newbie too. Sorry -- didn't take notes :(

The main steps that I used were:

Removed the existing driver: sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source

Enabled proposed archive: To enable the proposed archive for Ubuntu 16.04 and later use the Software & Updates program and ensure that Pre-released updates (xenial-proposed) is ticked in the Developer Options tab. (Source: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed)

Install: sudo apt-get install broadcom-sta-dkms/xenial-proposed (Source: Stan's comment above for the package name)
