My question is: There is an official Fedora driver (embedded, akmod or kmod) for this (bcp43142) wireless network card?

Work. But only if I connect to my and other router wifi with mode infrastructure. If I connect to my server firewall, witch share our wireless network card mode "ad-hoc" do not work. On another Notebook with another BCM network card and wl driver, I had rebuild the driver and use "make API=WEXT", in this mode i can connect to both mode. With wl-bcm43142 I could not try, but I think that would work. If you're interested, I can try in a few days. Do you have some suggest for me?

Many thanks, and sorry for my bad English.

Thanks Sérgio, your help was very useful for me, and I think witch rpmfusion list is a good place to discuss about a rpmfusion's rpm issue. Or not?
