Unable to connect via WiFi

Hello.

After installing Gentoo and needed packages to be able to use WiFi, I cannot connect my computer, and I cannot figure out how to solve the problem.

My device is a Broadcom BCM4360. By other distros I know that the appropriate module is wl. But I’m stuck.

I assume you followed Gentoo wireless wiki.
To get help you should describe better where you get stuck.

To be more accurate, I’m not able to turn on my internet connection or to set up the WiFi device.

Ignatius881,

What does dmesg tell?
Put it all onto a pastbin site and post a link.
