I have not tested this as of yet. Try at your own risk.

get 
http://drivers76.com/drivers/laptops/star1/rtl8187B_linux_26.1052.0225.2009.release.tar.gz
tar -xzvf rtl8187B_linux_26.1052.0225.2009.release.tar.gz
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
cd rtl8187B_linux_26.1052.0225.2009.release
make && sudo make install

After reboot, check if wireless is working. If not you may need to
blacklist rtl8187 (the new module is r8187 IIRC).

echo blacklist rtl8187 | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8187.conf
