Now that I finally have my system up and running on 12.3, I'm getting greedy. Is there any trick to enable Airdrop using my Z490 I Aorus Ultra's built-in WiFi/Bluetooth? That's the only thing that's missing, and while I know I can email files to myself, I really enjoyed the ease of Airdrop. Probably asking for the moon, but I thought I'd try.

different reports about what does and doesn't

use something native like the BCM94360NG, have that in my laptop, Handoff/Continuity/instant hotspot and apple unlock works great

no kexts required either

I appreciate it... I had a Broadcom in my old rig before I had to rebuild, but the M.2 adapter wouldn't fit in my new MB's slot. I'll get around to getting a new one... I was just so traumatized by the 12.3 update fiasco that I just want to let the system work for awhile before I go monkeying around with it again, LOL!

The 94360CS2 is actually the card that I have... it's just that he adapter, I think it's called NGFF, didn't fit in the new MB. But I can look around for either a new M.2 adapter or PCI-E.
