The network config tools need some work. (Especially for Wireless.) I
have been trying to get my bcm4306 chipset wireless to work. The network
tools don't see it. (And I have the firmware that I used on FC6 with no
problems.)
For the new driver, I think you need newer firmware. Unfortunately, the
firmware for the Broadcom isn't freely redistributable and thus we can't
ship one so it can work out of the box.
