Do you have a link where you purchased the airport/Bluetooth card? Or is there a resource that lists which network cards are compatible with the Asus Maximum Gene VIII and Mac OSX?
I had to go through www.taobaoring.com to get a working card from China. Prior to that I ordered a (likely knockoff(?)) card from eBay and a cheap PCI-E adapter, and could only get Wifi out of it, but bluetooth card did not show up at all.
I tried all I could, and found posts in regard to it would work in a 1x slot, which the Maximus Gene VIII does not have. And the workaround was the card I bought which has a full USB connection to feed power/data for the bluetooth card that the PCI-E 4X slot apparently wasn't providing. Or, I just got a bum card.
What I can say is this card works great and is readily available - https://world.taobao.com/item/38195333521.htm?fromSite=main
Both 802.11AC Wifi and Bluetooth is working great. Full handoff, airdrop, continuity.
