I know its early in the FC7 process but this is just a note to say

Have you actually READ the messages you're quoting?
Mar 4 17:49:11 localhost kernel: bcm43xx_mac80211: YOUR FIRMWARE IS
TOO OLD.
Firmware from binary
drivers older than version 4.x is unsupported. You must upgrade your
firmware
files.
That says it all.
Fedora 7 is using the new Devicescape 802.11 stack. This includes a new version
of the bcm43xx driver, which requires newer firmware. (Note that the newer
firmware will NOT work with the older bcm43xx.) You need to find a driver with
a 4.x version supported by fwcutter, then run fwcutter on that.
