Bringing up F27 WS on an old laptop machine for a friend (at a hotspot):
Inserting the usb dongle (TP-Link....etc) suggested by a list member,
I see the following related output from dmesg:

So, for some reason, it is not able to shake hands with the hotspot wifi
router.
The machine has it's own built-in Broadcom wifi, which f27 has NO
drivers for, and NO firmware for :( :( :(
to wit:
lspci | grep -i wireless
0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n
Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)
The links I ave received so far about this chipset have not provided
ready to install packages.
Almost every link I visited, requires builds and reboots.
I am loath to tainting this installation.
So, I am unable to
1. run updates
2. install the full MATE DT.
3. Install other rpms my friend needs.
Using the f27 gui to bring up the usb wifi (to connect with Starbucks
router)
keeps timing out.
On my own laptop, which uses the internal Intel WIFI 5100, I am not
getting the timeout.
