I missed one keyword in my message - you need a V4 Windows or OS X driver. I use wl_apsta.o, but
that driver occurs in both V3 and V4 versions. The Windows driver would be named bcmwl5.sys, but
they usually come with a lot of other Windows software bundled in. Check the archives for a URL for
the V4 variety of wl_apsta.o
The fc7 version of fwcutter should handle the driver.
