I'm installing Debian 11. The installer says that it is missing firmware

b43-open/ucode.fw. If you have such media available now, insert it, and
continue.
I downloaded the dang unofficial DVD ISO that supposedly has non-free
binaries, but the installer won't accept that media as having the
Broadcom drivers that I need. Sneakernet doesn't work because every
iteration of the ISO that I try has no working dpkg. I cannot dpkg the
stuff I need for dpkg to work if dpkg is not working.
I appreciate your stance on non-free binaries, but at least throw me a
bone on the unofficial ISO files.

Good afternoon Toby
Just a quick response
Please advise the full name of your install .iso
And output of command
lspci
at least the network controllers
I've used b43 firmware in the past and it worked; but that macbook died
about 5 years ago, so no recent knowledge
