            Note these packages are from updates.  If the laptop
            system hasn't been updated one
            can use....

            dnf --disablerepo updates --downloadonly
            --downloaddir=/tmp install broadcom-wl

            to get....

              kernel-devel          x86_64 4.13.9-300.fc27      fedora
                 11 M
              kernel-headers        x86_64 4.13.9-300.fc27      fedora
                1.2 M

        All done and installed and all is well on my friend's f27 laptop.
        The snag I ran into had to do with the fact that the un-networked
        laptop, while trying to install the broadcom rpm and the
        dependencies,
        kept throwing me a curve: dnf kep saying it was unable to sync
        with the
        repositories: updates, fedora, rpmfusion....

        How could it, since I was trying to install the very things
        that WOULD
        enable it to sync.
        So, before I gave up, I added the command argument:
        --disablerepo=*
        and lo and behold all the rpms in question got installed, and
        I rebooted,
        and the network was on. Ran updates. All is well.

        Thanx a lot!!

    I don't believe that the workstation ISO will have what you need,
    as it is a netinstall image.
    You will probably want the server image,  I'm downloading that to
    check it now.


JD

The server iso has what you need,

Yes you are right, but it is too late now :)

I should have looked there myself :)
