For v4 firmware you need latest bcm43xx development version (wireless-dev kernel tree). If you don't know what this warning is about, use a 3.xx.xx.xx driver version instead to extract the firmware. filename : bcmwl564.sys version : 4.100.15.5 MD5 : feaf7ec9f38a37945b6fb169617ec859 microcodes : 4 5 11 13 pcms : 4 5 microcode : 4 revision : 0x0173 patchlevel : 0x0425 date : 2006-10-04 time : 21:02:04 microcode : 5 revision : 0x0173 patchlevel : 0x0425 date : 2006-10-04 time : 21:02:04 microcode : 11 revision : 0x0173 patchlevel : 0x0425 date : 2006-10-04 time : 21:02:04 microcode : 13 revision : 0x0173 patchlevel : 0x0425 date : 2006-10-04 time : 21:02:04 .... and hence, avoided v4 firmware.
