BCM943602CS Combo Card For Hackintosh

[dez]

Thanks! That seems positive but frustratingly out of reach for you at the same time too

I have this fully working on Sierra 10.12.1.
What works:

1. Wifi at 1300Mbps (Limited by my Router, not the card itself)
2. B/T. Tested with external speakers, lights, iPhone
3. Which brings me to Airdrop with my iPhone 6S and 7 and the iPad Pro 12.9"
4. Hand-off works, including iPhone calls and SMS via Messages.app
5. Continuity including the new copy-paste in Sierra and iOS 10.

What doesn't work:

1. Wifi under Windows 10. But I'm about to try the following:
   

   Hello @Edhawk
   Yes, I have one of these cards too.
   The Windows driver *is* in the BootCamp driver package but, if memory serves me correctly, you need to get the latest to find compatibility with this particular Apple chip. The version I downloaded was v6 (031-56534). I recommend *not* using the bootcamp.msi to install anything, despite others recommending it because it doesn't do anything useful on a hackintosh and is very difficult to uninstall. Just install using the broadcom wireless exe file.
   
   Wireless seems very stable.
   
   Hope that helps.

Have you gotten the wifi to work yet? I finally got bluetooth to work on Windows 10.

Have you gotten the wifi to work yet? I finally got bluetooth to work on Windows 10.

Yes, I did. I created a USB drive using Bootcamp Manager on 10.12.1 which downloaded all the latest drivers to the drive. Then used the ones inside the Broadcom folder to get it working. Works at full 1300Mbps.

Windows 10 with latest patches.

I got the Wi-Fi to show up! However, no networks are being found. I'll look into that more. Thanks for the help!

No, you won't need to add any kexts. It'll work OOTB. You don't need to switch the interface settings. Ethernet should be en0. For Wifi, mine is en1. I had to make no changes to get things working. You may have to disable the serial interface from your BIOS if one exists. I had to do that for mine. But your experience may vary. Mobo on my profile.
