Hi David, you likely need akmod-wl as well as well as kernel development headers

I am probably asking on the wrong listserve, but this is the only one I subscribe to.
I have never used wi-fi in Fedora. I have normally had access to a Ethernet and all my previous attempts at wi-fi in Fedora have failed.
So today, I purchased a router, and connected it to my cable-modem and was able to immediately use wi-fi on my $ 30 Android smartphone.
But I can not for the life of me, figure out how to get wi-fi to work in Fedora. I believe I have third party repo properly installed. I believe I have Broadcom-wl and kmod-wl installed.
I am in Xfce, which in my opinion has poor Network Manager menu compared to Gnome.
I have used wi-fi on other distros before and my recollection was that it was not complicated.
When I click on the Network icon in the panel, it does not show wi-fi.
If I go to the Xfce menu to "Advanced Network Configuration," I get a menu that is above my IQ.
