This is the command you should run, once the b43-fwcutter package is installed.
'b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o' (Replace .o
filename appropriately)

There is another command you can find in
/usr/share/b43-fwcutter/install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh but I am not sure
if it is required.

You can check output of command 'dmesg' after few minutes to check if
firmware got loaded. If it doesn't then restart the machine.

Hope this helps.
