Hi guys just got my FL1100 based PCIex1 card few days ago. 4ports, SATA power connector onboard. Problem is I am not getting 1A on iPhone or iPad charging. At least that is how it looks in System Profiler: On MacBook Pro same iPhone reporting 1A: On my P5Q USB2 port it is reported as here...

If anyone know why it could be that BCM93331CSAX is not OOB in Sierra And El Capitan before that. Why you need activator which is unstable. Do I need to do some DSDT editing or just use not iMac 14,2 SMBIOS? On C2Q Xeon if that important.

I've seen it working fine on real mbp13". But to on my hack. Same trackpad. Thinking about connecting making preferences and copy them but what the name of preferences.apple.com for trackpad?

And BTW guys do you have problems with sleep after installing WiFi card?

Those are Macbook Pro Retina cards actually. Violet dragon could you please test yours for BT RSSI in few scenarios like 1, 2, 5 meters of BT device from antennas? Here is mine on Magic Mouse one meter from antennas 1) with WIFi On 2)WiFi Off 3) WiFi Off and Router Off

BT is working over USB only 3.3v it gets from from PCIe. Check bottom backside of wifi card for missing elements. It is not so rare problem that resistor is missing. It could be detected as snapped of solder points. Use magnifying glass.

It is not CS chef but CD on your photo. It is iMac version

They all are made in China. Make sure your connection on PCIe is good without dust. Also check PCB of the card to make sure no SMD elements are off because that happens sometimes.

It should work OOB. Maybe you will need Continuity Activation Tool for some of Continuity features to work maybe it will wok without it. Keep us posted on you results and please try to look for BT connection RSSI. With alt+click on BT icon in menu or with iStumbler. Thank you!

It might be just different baseline since 2007 Macbook is on 10.6 Also I've found that my router (2,4GHz and close to the PC) is interfering with bluetooth. Switching it off greatly improves connection too.

Seems like amplification on bluetooth antenna in your setup is not working properly too. Just tried pairing my BT speaker to older macbook of mine RSSI is from -1 to -5dBm when on the other side of the flat. I suppose bluetooth antenna connector on Macbook Pro Retina must be on some other place...

I wonder if one of the antennas is actually doubled as bluetooth then it could be that one of mine is not functioning thus that bad reception with Bluetooth. But how to make sure without reconecting all possible scenarios. Those antenna connectors are so flimsy I wouldn't want unplugging and...

Bluetooth is present and it is working in close proximity but to me it seems like that signal is not amplified by antennas. At least judging RSSI of connected bluetooth speaker. Here is screenshot made when speaker is about a meter from open logic board. They are just on different sides of my...

Interesting! Do you maybe know how this CS cards get WiFi reception in Macbooks? I've just bought 94331CSAX with and PCIex1 adapter with three antennas. After CAT everything works but Bluetooth signal is abysmally low. handfree is losing connection 2 meter from an open pc same for handoff.(

Well, changed card for 630v2 1GB Asus silent model recently (GK208) and it is even better. Now I have some free video ram (looking at atMonitor) and it does seems as fluid as I want. Also no need for Nvidia web driver with this card. Everything is running OOB on Clover.
