Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. It helped me a lot to activate WiFi for Debian 11 that I installed on my Macbook Pro 17" mid 2010. In my case, I needed to install the brcm80211.
These are my steps I did:
1 - Installed lshw and created an HTML hardware list like you instructed.
2 - Add the following line to my sources.list:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib non-free
