Hello neo_cool_XIIK
It may depend on how up to date your fedora 7 installation was before you upgraded to 8.
During the lifetime of fedora 7 a change was made from using the older bcm43xx driver for broadcom to the new b43 driver.
If you hadn't updated your copy of fedora 7 that may explain why it no longer works in fedora 8.
There are in any case many other changes to wireless networking between fedora 7 and 8.
If you run the command:
/sbin/iwconfig
it should tell you if any wireless cards are being detected.
If they are not then you will probably need to set up wireless again.
That is complicated by the fact that there are two different versions of the b43 driver, b43 for newer cards and b43legacy for older ones.
This howto:

method 2 - will tell you how to go about setting up the b43 driver, however, the firmware that it points you to downloading may be wrong if your installation is trying to use the b43legacy.
/sbin/lsmod
should tell you which driver is being loaded.
This page:

will give you details of which cards are supported and which firmware to use for which card. Also it gives links to download the proper firmware.
Hope that helps.
