Can't get wireless working after installing ubuntu 12.10 on acer aspire 5560-7414

I have been struggling all day trying different solutions from different posts on how to get my wifi working but none have worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Below are some wireless preferences to help find the problem.
