I'm not sure which iso you downloaded. If it was the netinst version
from https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/debian-installer/
take a look further down the page where there's a panel with a red
cross. Here you can get the netinst iso with firmware included within
it. bcm43xx-0.fw 96224 Jun 15  2014 is in there.

Cheers,
David.
