Update, I removed package b43-fwcutter (installed by Ubuntu) and installed package bcm43xx-fcutter to no result; however, when I went to the the hardware drivers page I noticed that the check box next to "enabled" was off so I re-enabled it (note: it was enabled before I removed b43). The driver manager installed b43-fwcutter alongside bcm43xx-fcutter and with both installed the lights on the device have turned on and wireless networks are visible.
