In previous Fedora versions back to the late fc20s it was necessary for me to build the Broadcom wifi driver BCM43142 by compiling it as "hybrid_wl then adding it to the kernel using modprobe wl. This process mimicked the same techniques as upgrading the VMware driver.
DMESG output: eth0: Broadcom BCM4365 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 6.30.223.271 (r587334)
I reviewing the fc33 it now states that the Broadcom wifi is now supported by Fedora but it states it might require additional downloads. This statement is concerning because believe it or not some Internet users (me) have been wireless for a few years and have no cable for backup. Therefore, installing fc33 then needing to download additional files makes upgrading more difficult as I would need to download the additional files through a smartphone and use USB to get these files back to the Fedora host.
Before, upgrading I would like more details of the upgrade and kernel loading of the Fedora developed Broadcom drivers. Maybe I can download these files before upgrading and have then local to install after the upgrade.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
