How to enable WIFI on Gigabyte-Z270N-WIFI

[kennydk]

The adapter I purchased is something like this:
New BCM94360CS2/BCM943224PCIEBT2 Card To NGFF(M.2) Key A/E Adapter For Mac OS

If you scroll all the way down on the page you'll see an example on how its used on a Gigabyte Z170N board.

This is a pic of mine on my board:

Does the bluetooth work?

Hey everyone. I didn't want to start a new thread because I figured I could ask this question in a similar thread. I purchased the GA-z270n mobo. I knew before hand that the included wifi/bt card that the wifi doesn't work. I went ahead and purchased an authentic Apple BCM94360CD card and an M.2 adapter. Here's the issue. The included antenna connections don't fit the apple card. Okay, that's an easy fix. I can just purchase new antennas that will work with this card. The bigger issue is that this particular card has 4 antenna connections while this board only has 2 coax antenna points. What can I do?

hello mate, Does the bluetooth work? I purchased the same MB and I purchased a m2 to mini PCI-e adaptor + BCM94360CS2, The Wi-FI works, but the bluetooth can not be found.

Could u upload the EFI of yours.

I have the same hardwares as you.

Thanks in advance.

I have passed the computer on to a friend so have no access to it today. Also not sure exactly what you mean by "Upload the EFI" could you elaborate please?

I'm not really sure. I can tell you that there is info on the Bluetooth screen. Not exactly the answer your looking for but I don't have any bluetooth devices. Ill look for something and will try to get back to you.

Yes, the bluetooth does work. I have a 100% authentic apple wifi/bt module so macOS sees it as such. Go over to System Report under Bluetooth and see what it says.

Hello gordonsteel,

Thanks very much for your replay.
The EFI is a hidden disk partition in '/Volumes/EFI', It contains all Clover configurations and drivers installed on your Hacintosh.

You can use 'Clover Configurator' to mount and unmount the Partition. After you mount the partition, you can help me to archive the EFI folder and upload here, with the same MB and Hardwares, we are able to use the same Clover configurations and drivers to install the Hacintosh.

Thanks.
