[Guide] Airport - PCIe Half Mini v2

[colordeficiency]

In 10.12.1 I used FakePCIID kext enabler and doesn't work anymore. It was working fine in 10.12, using the fcvo patch and the 5Ghz #a patch.

My device id is 14E4:43B1 BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter

10.12.1 has been a hassle so far.

Console is spaming this if it matters
com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (com.apple.wifivelocityd): Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.

It's working now with the additional 3 PCI kext patches which I know as you mentioned shouldn't be used but what the heck I attached everything required as below of a working wifi in 10.12.1

Attachments, useless. It works until it doesn't. Good luck.

The attachments are exactly what you requested. Screenshot and attachments, ain't it not? I figure the best way was to use the IO80211Family kext from 10.12 but after applying the PCI fixes it miraculous works even though you kept mentioning it to be useless. In the course of testing I did update my 10.12.1 to a newer revision 16B2555 to 16B2657.

Gimme awhile and I would DISABLE to 3 PCI fixed and redo all the screenshot and attachments.

Here we go.

3. dsdt edits, [Guide] airport_pcie-hm_dsdt_edits.pdf (repo)
4. ssdt enabler, see ssdt_enabler folder (repo)
   1. 94352, see ssdt_arpt folder (repo)

I have always used kext enabler to get WiFI working before 10.12. Base on the latest update to Post #1 is it saying I should only use SSDT enabler for 94352 which is in ssdt_arpt folder in the repo? Which rp04, rp05, rp06 or rp07?

 

[toleda]

So other than just 'not working at all' what else would suggest it is not configured properly?

Asked and answered, Post #2130.

 

[toleda]

Which rp04, rp05, rp06 or rp07?

RP05

 

[colordeficiency]

RP05

I swore it was RP04 but nevermind. Either is not getting the hardware detected. Ensure that SSDT is patched, removed FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext but still the hardware is not detected in System Report.
