I have download these src.rpm
> $ wget \ 
> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25699833/rpmfusion/Rawhide/wl-bcm43142-kmod/wl-bcm43142-kmod-6.20.55.19-1.fc19.src.rpm \

then I have rebuild them with:
> $ rpmbuild --rebuild \
> broadcom-wl-bcm43142-6.20.55.19-1.fc19.src.rpm \
> wl-bcm43142-kmod-6.20.55.19-1.fc19.src.rpm

then I have install it with:
> sudo yum install \
> rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/broadcom-wl-bcm43142-6.20.55.19-1.fc18.noarch.rpm \
> rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kmod-wl-bcm43142-6.20.55.19-1.fc18.x86_64.rpm \
> rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/akmod-wl-bcm43142-6.20.55.19-1.fc18.x86_64.rpm

and test it.

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 in to mode "ad-hoc" do not work.

On another Notebook with BCM 4313 (not supported from b43
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#Supported_devices ) card, I have
use wl driver and I had rebuild the src.rpm and modify the make command with
"make API=WEXT", in this mode the driver can connect into both mode.

With wl-bcm43142 I could not try this trick , but I think that would work.
If you're interested, I can try in a few days.

Do you have some suggest for me?
