So it would be a matter to translate to your architecure, kernel
version and fedora version to know which are the correct ones. To be
sure about dependencies, please check (without quotes) with "yum
deplist"

Hi,

it is likely that the module used by your card is the b43 one, provided by
the kernel.
But this module requires also a firmware.
Anyway I think that the proprietary module wl supports also 4311 chipsets.
Did you installed some third-party drivers?
What return the following commands ?
  lsmod | egrep "b43|wl"
  rpm -qa \*kmod\* \*firmware
  lspci -k
