Administrators Hervé Posted August 24, 2023 Administrators Share Posted August 24, 2023 It's based on Broadcom BCM4352, so, apply the necessary patch. It's never been natively supported. https://osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/11138-inventory-of-supportedunsupported-wireless-cards-2-sierra-ventura https://github.com/khronokernel/IO80211-Patches 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaleic Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 How should i use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted August 24, 2023 Administrators Share Posted August 24, 2023 Plenty of existing threads on the matter. See here for instance. in your bootloader's config, inject device property declaring your card compatible with Broadcom BCM4360 (14e4:43a0). inject AirPortBrcmFixup kext. make sure you use a suitable SMBIOS profile (eg: MPB12,1) or -no_compat_check boot arg if you're using MBP9,x/MBP10,x profile.

Amaleic Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 Can you help me with injecting? I tried to add the device to config plist, but my system won't boot after my attempts. I'm a complete noob at this things. The device path is: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x1)/Pci(0x0,0x0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted August 25, 2023 Administrators Share Posted August 25, 2023 All you really have to do is grab an existing config and look it up with apps such as OpenCoreConfigurator (or otherwise) and do the same. Just make sure to target the correct IO locatoin/device path by verifying things in IOReg 1st. You may use apps such as IORegistryExplorer to that effect.

Amaleic Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 Is it possible with Clover bootloader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted August 25, 2023 Administrators Share Posted August 25, 2023 Exact same process; you may use CloverConfigurator. Property injection is done in the exact same way in the config file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaleic Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 Unfortunately, I did not find detailed information on how to perform the injection correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted August 25, 2023 Administrators Share Posted August 25, 2023 If you download a Clover bootpack from one of my existing E6230 guides and open the config file with CloverConfigurator, you'll see what to do and how it's done. Look up the Device tab on the left, the the Properties area at bottom right: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
