I have tried 3 WiFi cards:
1. BCM94352HMB which is natively recognized including BigSur
2. BCM94360HMB working only with AirportBrcmFixup.kext
3. Intel 7260HMW working only with AirportItlwm.kext
First one booting without issues but without AirportBrcmFixup. But only to BigSur. Booting into Monterey+ demands AirpotBrcmFixup. After switching it on - problem with unpredictable booting starts from BigSur+. Former systems work.
Second one, as working only with AirportBrcmFixup starting problems from BigSur+. Former systems work
So it looks like injection into BigSur and further systems AirPortBrcmNIC_Injector.kext is the real problem.
Fixing delays and any other config changes does not work.
BUT
Both cards work without any booting issues in my iMac hackintosh on Ventura.... They of course use AirportBrcmFixup.
Third card - works very well in all OS systems but Ventura. Of course with some limitations which also affected Broadcom cards starting from BigSur. This is a matter of time when fixed kext for Intel WiFi will arrive.
Here is picture with errors which I see booting Monterey and Ventura with Broadcom WiFi. i can not handle it, so now I am using Intel.
Some optimism at the end - if Broadcom does not stuck it also works on Ventura.
