  In install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh, wget fails because mirror2.openwrt.org has been down for at least 4 days. The needed firmware is all available at downloads.openwrt.org. My modified install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh is as follows:

  #!/bin/sh

  set -e

  dir=$(mktemp -d)
  cd "$dir"
  wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o
  wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2
