Googling a few days and checking on my computer I found the following:- the infamous wifi adapter BCM4360 appears on lshw list- the driver for wifi adapter appears on lsmod list as BCMA, and I also find the driver, bcm-pci-bridge in sys/bus/drivers- i didn't find any file in /etc/sysconfig/network_scripts where the device is bcma wifi adapter, or any wifi.

Hi Cristian,
Some time ago I installed CentOS 7 on a client's MacBook Pro, with a
Broadcom wireless card.
Here's my notes (in french) :

First make sure to upgrade the kernel to ELRepo's kernel-lts
Once you have that, install the driver as described in the article.
Cheers,
Niki
