It seems that I know the reason why is disabled my wifi...
it's looks like the rfkill is active - as I have get acquainted this thing - it means that for spare battery power you could turn off the wifi chip. This is the rfkill. But I couldn't turn off this - or manage. Normally as far as I know, Networkmanager could do this at in right click menu, and manage this part. But currently the whole network managing upper part is greyed out - so it means for me that unreachable.
Somebodí at support chat has adviced to me to install system-config-network - this helped to me a lot to get the diagnosis.
So - I hope this will help if somebody knows the solution for this - here is the part of the dmesg:
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
Error for wireless request "Set Frequency" (8B04) :
invalid argument "Automatic".

Thanks,
I knew this, but doesnt work. However I have insterted successfully the b43 driver, but somehow gets disabled my wireless network. I think this is causing by NetworkManager, but couldn't tell that why. Maybe I don't have right, but currently I'm stucked with an disabled Broadcom-PHY. Well, it seems in dmesg that first turns on the PHY then turns off???
Here is my part of the dmesg:

Furthermore, on networkmanager gui where you could turn off/on the networks (right click on upper systray icon), greyed out - so couldn't explain what happened...
