Administrators Hervé Posted February 9, 2014 Administrators Share Posted February 9, 2014 Look for the BCM kext of D430/D620/D820. Make sure to use the Intel binary version, not the universal binary PPC&x86 version. It's been mentioned in several threads (there's a detailed post about this re: D430 installation). You'll find the kext with a forum search on "universal binary" or on "BCM5751". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNuutti8 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Thanks for help, man! Let's see if it works! Nuutti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNuutti8 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Well well well... D620 kext didnt work... It gave me some kind of ramdom ip. It wasn't 192.168.1.XXX like it should be. It didn't recognize mac-adress, it did'nt find ip of my router... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted February 9, 2014 Administrators Share Posted February 9, 2014 All Zero MAC address tended to be obtained with universal binary kext, hence why you should use the Intel version. Post us the output of Terminal command lspci -nn so that we can clearly identify your LAN card (needs lspcidrv.kext loaded), but HP documentation does indeed clearly state BCM5751 10/100/1000BT Ethernet... Is it enabled in BIOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNuutti8 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 And the Intel-only kext didnt work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNuutti8 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Its also enabled in bios, worked with FC20 KDE.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted February 9, 2014 Administrators Share Posted February 9, 2014 The kext needs to be patched with your PCI dev id... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNuutti8 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 No. Actually when i tried to add network interface there wasn´t any option called by "Ethernet". I'll try installing Intel kext again... Nuutti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
