The Internet says that one should try the Broadcom "wl" driver for
this card.  This is not part of the `wifibox-brcm` package.  But the
`net/wifibox-alpine` port has the non-default `XX_DRIVER_WL` option
[1] that one could configure and build manually [2].  By version
`20230926`, I was able to make Broadcom cards work with the `wl`
driver so there is some chance.

Thanks,
