The snag I ran into had to do with the fact that the un-networked laptop, while trying to install the broadcom rpm and the dependencies, kept throwing me a curve: dnf kep saying it was unable to sync with the repositories: updates, fedora, rpmfusion.... How could it, since I was trying to install the very things that WOULD enable it to sync. So, before I gave up, I added the command argument: --disablerepo=* and lo and behold all the rpms in question got installed, and I rebooted, and the network was on. Ran updates. All is well.
