Unlikely to be supported in the near term, if ever, unfortunately. No hardware docs, and the BSD-licensed vendor-provided driver[1] in Linux is a massive unreadable mess of magic numbers the size of OpenBSD's entire wifi stack (look at phy/phy_n.c for laughs). Which effectively means only the vendor can maintain this driver without unreasonable effort. A supported USB wifi stick can be used as a workaround until this situation improves. Or try swapping out the card inside the laptop with one that works. [1] https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac
