I tested this same scenario on Ubuntu 22.04.2 and while I still don't
have a wireless device available I did discover the following:
bdmurray@bdmurray-Standard-PC-Q35-ICH9-2009:~$ ubuntu-drivers list
bcmwl-kernel-source

Title:
Failed to install bcmwl wireless driver during the install
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Specifically for Lunar - using a Macbook Air 2012, its wireless driver
was not enabled even though I ticked the wireless tickbox on the
installer.
A quick look at the installer logs reveals various issues
syslog:2023-03-29T18:01:25.141599+00:00 ubuntu-budgie kernel: [ 43.063747]

I will attach the installer logs manually since this was captured
after the installation
Note - on 20.04.6, 22.04.2 and 22.10 with the same laptop bcmwl was
installed correctly during the install so this is a regression with
the 6.2 kernel
