After upgrading my laptop from FC4 to FC6, I'm trying to configure

Thanks!

You might want to read through the following bug:
[Bug 186329] bcm43xx not enabled by default.
at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=186329 (you will
probably need to create a Red Hat bugzilla account if you don't have
one). It's kind of turned into a running account of people's successes
and failures with the bcm43xx driver.

I appreciate everyone's response. It turns out the problem was more
fundamental. Somehow the laptop's radio transmitter had gotten turned
off. I had to find the key combo that turned it back on. (Probably found
it by mistake the first time.) That saga was covered in the thread I
started "Problems with wireless". I now have wireless working on my
laptop using bcm43xx and Fedora Core 6.You know how you feel elated at
the small things sometimes? I'm extremely pleased with myself for for
the moment. :)
