Hi! Are either of my drivers supported? Both Ethernet and WiFi below.

Realtek RTL8125 LAN driver V1125.9.614.2022 (Ethernet) or Realtek RTL8852BE WiFi driver V6001.15.124.0 (WiFi) for MacOS 11 Big Sur or MacOs 12 Monterey?

I felt this was the best place to ask.

Edit: I am asking about 11 and 12 because I do not know if my 1060 3GB can run anything higher than that. I already saw that they do not support the current GPU I use which is the NVIDIA RTX 3070.

Ethernet is supported but the WiFi isn't. You must replace it with a compatible adapter. 1060 can be patched on higher version but highly experimental. None of the RTX GPUs are supported as of now.

Anyway to get Atheros Killer 3100X to work? I hear it shows in Hackintool as Intel.

Attach Hackintool PCIe Info.

It works OOTB. E3100X is from Intel, not Atheros.

 

[exefes]

Intel Killer E3100G the same as E3100X? Working Out of the box?

Yes, it does.

Hi guys, I have purchased a CX4121A-ACAT ConnectX-4 card after reading this post but I can't make it working in Sonoma. The card is in a PCIe slot, and it is seen by the system, recognized as Ethernet card, but no driver is loaded. (The card works fine in Windows 11.) The AppleEthernetMLX5 can't load, it crashes EXC_BAD_ACCESS exception. Its parent class is IOSkywalkFamily, for which I am trying to load the original Apple version from System/Library/Extensions, but it is not loading, I can see this in sysinfo: "Kext has a CFBundleExecutable property but the executable can't be found: IOSkywalkFamily". So this is where I am stuck now.
I am not sure I understand the exact reason why IOSkywalkFamily had to be replaced by an external kext, I thought it was because of missing Broadcom support - but does this also mean that I need to use the OpenCore version of IOSkywalkFamily, with the same extra steps as if I was using it for a Broadcom wifi driver? I have tried loading the OC version but that did not work either.
Has anyone made this card - or any other Mellanox card that uses the AppleEthernetMLX5 driver - working under Sonoma?
