Ami Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Good day there! Thanks to anyone who is kind enough to reply to this! A couple of months ago members of your project helped to install OS X sierra on my dell. Everything worked perfect till the moment the wifi started to malfunctioning -it didn't switch on. Before the installation of the Osx I replace dw1530 to dw1510. But as I said it stopped to work or to switch on. Then I replaced the card with AR5B195 and use this http://www.osx86.net...mbo-el-capitan/ Everything seemed to be ok-I can see the card in device list (both wifi and bt). But it can't find any net. I use the AirPort Extreme. Other my laptop hp pavilion see the net, iPhone also see it. I did everything I found through the internet-in vain, no networks. Could you help me with issue? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Jake Lo Posted May 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 8, 2017 Try this - Go to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and delete these files: CaptiveNetworkSupport com.apple.airport.preferences.plist com.apple.network.eapolclient.configuration.plist NetworkInterfaces.plist - Go to System Preferences > Network, delete all connection. Then restart- Go to System Preferences > Network, add your connection again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Problem with wifi connection is solved. I replace dw1510 which didn't work at all with ar5b195, put kext s from here http://www.osx86.net/files/file/4649-atheros-ar5b195-ar9285ar3011-combo-el-capitan/ After that card started to work but saw no networks. I stick the skotch type on the 20 pin and everything went good-all the networks started to be discoverable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted May 12, 2017 Administrators Share Posted May 12, 2017 dw1510 probably needs the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted May 12, 2017 Administrators Share Posted May 12, 2017 I've had DW1510 (and DW1520) in my E6220/E6230 prior to switching to Apple's own BCM4360CD and did not require to tape any pins. I think I did the rebranding though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted May 12, 2017 Administrators Share Posted May 12, 2017 probably means the switch on the side of the machine is not working properly. or the bios setting. or they don't know there is a switch on the machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted May 13, 2017 Administrators Share Posted May 13, 2017 Yup, I highly suspect wifi switch in Off position... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 In the case if the side switch is off why did the atheros card work at spot? Apparently l know the problem connected with that switcher - I've got some experience on my dell d630.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
