Did you copy them to /usr/lib/firmware or /lib/firmware?  They need to
go in /lib/firmware.

Also, I have found that sometimes modprobing doesn't always get some
drivers loaded. I would suggest a reboot after you have the firmware in
the right place with the right name, if you don't already.

This is the right filename:

/lib/firmware/bcm43xx_microcode5.fw
