Hi Jim,
Just google a while and found this:

scroll down and get the file.
Please also share your bcm43xx experience or document it in the wiki.

Just got my first install of voyage up on an old Dell laptop, very

I want to drive the broadcom wireless chip, to join onto the existing
wlan. I've done this under other linux' on the same hardware with
ndiswrapper.
But here it looks like the bcm43xx driver is the way to go :-) so far
I've spotted the bcm43xx-mac80211 module, when I load this I seem to
get a wlan0 device - but if I try to 'ifconfig wlan0 up' I'm told that
I have no firmware.
So I went to an Ubuntu feisty machine, and installed bcm43x-fwcutter,
which collected firmware for me, and copied that into /lib/firmware.
Now 'ifconfig wlan0 up' tells me that the fw I have is no good, and it
needs version 4 code.
Am I doing this right? If so, where can I get the version 4 firmware
from? I don't have a Windows CD for this machine, I don't own a copy
of Windows anywhere ...
