Not enough information. Some BCM WiFi is supported, some not. Use DPCIManager->PCIList to find out what you have.

ethernet adapter:
Realtek PCIe FE Family controller

Try the Reaktek drives in Multibeast.

thank you so much for your help!
i 'installed' DPCIManager on my mavericks.
it gave me the full name of my network adapters:

wifi: BCM4313 802.11bgn wireless network adapter
ethernet: RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI express fast ethernet controller

i opened multibeast, at the network section i saw drivers for 81XX. i installed it, repaired permissons and rebuilt cache, then restarted my computer. at mac's network settings i get the ip: 169.254... (the laptop doesn't get a valid ip..) i configured my ethernet adapter to 10baseT/UTP speed, and half duplex, then reconnected the network cable, still get the same ip address no internet..
any suggestion?

and about the wifi- i can't find any kext for BCM4313

BCM4313 is not supported. You need to replace it.

There are multiple drivers around for Realtek. You should try each one, but only one at a time. Always remove the previous driver before trying the next.

should i repair permissions / rebuild cache every time i try another kext?

Yes, especially so if you are deleting the old kext after installing the new one. If you do it in the other order, Kext Wizard or whatever utility you're using to install the next one, will usually rebuild for you.
