    GUIDE How to Fix Broadcom WiFi on macOS Sonoma and Later

    As I mentioned earlier, I tried adding airportbrcmfixup to my config. After adding it, the system loads very long and BCM4331 is not visible in the system at all (corecaptureElCap and IO80211ElCap are not loaded) - see with_airportbrcmfixup.zip files. Without this kext BCM4331 is detectable and...

    GUIDE How to Fix Broadcom WiFi on macOS Sonoma and Later

    Are you sure this kext should be there? It's not in the guide for legacy cards. After adding it, the system loads very long and 4331 is not visible in the system at all (see with_airportbrcmfixup.zip). Without this kext 4331 is detectable and FV is loaded, but does not work...

    GUIDE How to Fix Broadcom WiFi on macOS Sonoma and Later

    Therefore, since I use BT from my motherboard. Broadcom 4331 I want to use only for Wi-Fi. In the guide it is only indicated for "Non-Apple AirPort and Non-Fenvi Cards". In my case it is BCM4331. According to the guide it is a "legacy card". That is why I do not have this kext. Should I have it?

    It is also important to remember that AppleVTD must be enabled. Without it, these Ethernet cards will not function properly.

    GUIDE How to Fix Broadcom WiFi on macOS Sonoma and Later

    Any news on Broadcom 4331 launch on Sequoia/Sonoma? I have the same problem as @zhenya8987. FV of 4331 is loaded but Wifi is unavailable. This is not a Sequoia problem. Same problem occurs on Sonoma.

    Ethernet Compatibility List for macOS

    I also have AX210 and it works without problems in Sonoma with both the Mellanox CX4121A-ACAT ConnectX-4 and Intel XXV710-DA2 cards. But I also wanted to have all the features available like Airdrop, etc. Hence, I wanted to have a working Fenvi T919 at the same time. I tried Ventura - there...

    GUIDE How to Fix Broadcom WiFi on macOS Sonoma and Later

    Did I understand this guide correctly that legacy cards such as BCM4331 and BCM43224 should work properly in Sonoma after adding the corecaptureElCap.kext and IO80211ElCap.kext?

    Ethernet Compatibility List for macOS

    The Ethernet cards we are talking about here, i.e. those using drivers: 1) com.apple.DriverKit-AppleEthernetIXL 2) com.apple.DriverKit-AppleEthernetMLX5 available in Sonoma in the com.apple.iokit.IOSkywalkFamily package. If we use the vanilla Sonoma system, these cards will work without any...

    Ethernet Compatibility List for macOS

    As a result of my investigation, I noticed that the problem occurs when installing Broadcom wifi cards (e.g. Fenvi T919). Installing this card requires locking the original IOskywalkfamily kext and running the patched Ventura kext. Support for these cards was probably added in Sonoma. The card...

    Expansion Slot Utility

    How can I get the correct information about installed PCIE cards in the Expansion Slot Utility? Is this possible on an Opencore Hackintosh configured as a MacPro? (Sonoma 14.4.1). At the moment I do not have correct information about any PCIE card installed in this tool, not even the graphics one.

    VT-d on, SMBIOS changed to MAcpro, and few other minor changes, but now I can't initialize XXV710 and Mellanox at all.
