I downloaded the Big Sur firmware from https://github.com/AdityaGarg8/macOS-Big-Sur-WiFi-Firmware/tree/main/C-4355__s-C1 And tried again. I manually moved the files into /tmp/apple-wifi-efi (compressed into wifi.tar.gz and also copied a folder containing the fw named wifi)
Nope, this will rename the firmware wrongly. You basically attempted to use the script to dump Big Sur firmware into Linux, but that won't work because the renaming done by the script is different, and works in the upgraded kernel, not the one you have rn.

It would be better if you upgrade your kernel using a wired internet (ethernet, USB tethering etc)
https://github.com/mikeeq/mbp-fedora-kernel#how-to-update-kernel-mbp
Then follow this guide
https://wiki.t2linux.org/guides/wifi/
from mbp-fedora.
Basically, after upgrading the kernel only, the script would work.

If you cannot upgrade, then you have to manually retrieve the firmware, manually rename it and paste it in Linux.

Thanks for such a quick response!! Was not expecting that at all
I will give that a shot, here's hoping updating the kernel works 👍
Thanks again, I'll update this thread with the results
from mbp-fedora.
I forgot mention that it's recommended to upgrade macOS to the latest version before using the wifi script.

I forgot mention that it's recommended to upgrade macOS to the latest version before using the wifi script.
I've been trying to avoid that as I'm only on ADSL and it takes about 4 hours to download macos...
I've reinstalled fedora to have a fresh start, and updated kernel + copied over firmware files correctly renamed for my chipset, although it's still not working.
When I run sudo journalctl -k --grep=brcmfmac
I'm getting this output:

I'm going to give up for the night, but any suggestions on what i could try for tomorrow by any chance? :)

Looks like you didn't use the script
from mbp-fedora.
Now you simply have to use the script as mentioned in the wiki. Probably use firmware from Monterey.
from mbp-fedora.
The renaming has to be done if you wanted to use the older kernel.
from mbp-fedora.
So simply run the script in macOS Monterey and then run it again in Fedora.
from mbp-fedora.
Solved it finally, wifi is working great!
Installed macOS Monterey, reinstalled fedora and updated the kernel - ran the script, after a reboot wifi worked perfectly.
Still having some quality of life issues such as sleep/ wake issues but I've seen some posts on how i can fix that around.
Thanks for the support and the great work team!
