In above post, someone suggested to refer "http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php (http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php)"  below drivers but eventually its not needed as it's inbuild in fedora but you need to activate it ( i dont know you need to check it out) . Check the "README.txt before downloading or installing.
