ok done it. I'm having the suspicion that I should have to install the kext of the wifi card previously. If it's so, I have to unistall toledaARPT.kext again and install the wifi kext first?
I have searched for it, but can't find the kext :|

You should be running with vanilla IO80211Family.kext and IONetworkingFamily.kext. If you modified/replaced or otherwise tampered with these kexts, do a fresh install.

Ok done, i've reinstalled OS X. Just installed the kext for the trackpad and the keyboard for now. What to do now?
Install first the kext for the wifi card, and than the toledaARPT.kext or just the last one?

What do you mean "kext for the wifi card"?

Install WiFi with 1 method, not 3.

I don't think this is a problem report, at least not yet.
I picked up a AzureWave AW-NB290 from ebay (I searched using the string BCM943225HMB). It was extremely inexpensive (under $10) and it sounded like I should be able to just drop this card right in and have Mavericks use it.
Here is what I received:

It sounds like this card should use the BCM43225 chipset, and I think the PCI device ID should be 0x4357.
This is what actually shows up when I install the card:

It looks like this card is based on a BCM43227. I can't confirm that AzureWave shipped a card with this chipset (and azurewave.com is pretty worthless for helping figure that out).
I've ended up with a card that is unsupported based on what I Can find here in the forum.
What I'm trying to figure out is if this is a counterfeit card before I contact the seller and leave feedback.
I don't know if there is any info in here that can be used to update the first post to help other members avoid this card.
If I have been mistaken and this card should work, I can go ahead and post all the info I gathered and treat this as a problem report.

I supposed that the wifi card must be installed (as in windows).. Sorry for something wrong that I say, it's my first hackintosh. :p:D
