https://packages.debian.org/broadcom-sta-dkms is the link to the

debian version.
Then dpkg -i nameofthepackage.deb (some other packages like the

Why did you choose to bypass apt?
maybe he couldn't use APT before he set up broadcomm module in order to get

He will, if the package was downloaded from debian archive and if he
downloaded jessie or older version.
The wiki page describes versions for jessie...
