so if you do lsmod do you see brcrmfmac loaded? I was actually misrembering , the only firmware I needed to find was BCM4345CS.hcd for the bluetooth support.
I used "$ sudo rpm --install brcm-pinebookpro-0.0-1.noarch.rpm"
I even copied (cp -r option) all the firmware files from the working Manjaro Plasma installed on the eMMC to the Fedora 36 Workstation image.
lsmod doesn't list brcmfmac nor any brcm module.
I was going to remove all the existing firmware files and re-copy the firmware files again.
so what happens if you do modprobe brcmfmac?

Actually, it is working now. I cleared out all the firmware files and copied over the Manjaro Plasma ones. And upon booting it up Wifi started working.

That's good! How's performance on emmc?

Not too bad. I haven't used the laptop much. I feel like the slowness really is in the booting and not the eMMC speed.
Also, I suspect that the 4GB of RAM is probably causing more of the sluggishness that I experience when in GNOME3 shell.
