maybe you need to add a boot argument they are as follows

 

Boot-args

  • brcmfx-country=XX changes the country code to XX (US, CN, #a, ...)
  • -brcmfxdbg turns on debugging output
  • -brcmfxbeta enables loading on unsupported osx
  • -brcmfxoff disables kext loading
  • wl_msg_level=0xXXXX & wl_msg_level2=0xXXXX set log level for native network kexts
  • -brcmfxwowl enables WOWL (WoWLAN) - it is disabled by default
  • option brcmfx-country also can be injected via DSDT or AddProperties/Arbitrary in Clover

A real Mac card may not fit in your E7470; you'd need to check the physical space available. If it does, you'd need an M.2 adapter and, possibly, an antenna kit.

 

You'd have to check the latest wireless cards used on Apple most recent Mac models of course but I understand that Apple used soldered components in some of their latest models.

 

I use the BCM94360CD + mini-PCIe adapter in my older Hacks (Latitude E6220/E6230) and an M.2 DW1820A in my most recent Latitude 7490. In those recent Dell laptops, a compatible M.2 card is, by far, the best solution. Go for the DW1560 if you hesitate in a DW1820A.
