You have to read the webpage. Here's the link again:
http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware
Everything is described there.
Thank you for being patient with me.
When I read that web page for the fourth time, I finally realized that
what I needed to do was forget about using the correct driver for my
adapter, and instead download an ancient driver for an unidentified
adapter from a website of unknown authenticity, and use the firmware
from that driver instead. Should have been obvious, I guess.
Then all I had to do was try every combination of settings in the
"Connect to Wireless Network" dialog. Once I clicked the "show
credentials" box, I was up and running.
Now I realize that my offer to add the signature for the latest driver
for my adapter to bcm43xx-fwcutter would be pointless, as bcm43xx
apparently does not support v4.x firmware.
Perhaps when I have some free time I can build the b43 driver and give
it a test drive.
Thanks again.
