Newest update 29 Oct killed my wireless!

Fedora 14: I'm used to kernel updates taking out my wireless and I usually have to
su yum remove broadcom-wl
reboot
and then
su yum install broadcom-wl
reboot
(of course this is while plugged in to the LAN)

and it would work again. This time it didn't work. Getting kind of tired of having to do this too. Hoping FC16 took care of this. Anyways, if anyone has a clue here to help, please and thank you come to mind.

extras:
rfkill list shows nothing blocked or turned off but I still tried the rfkill unblock all and rebooted again. Still nothing. Wireless light always stays orange.
