Hi,

I have recently installed Big Sur on Thinkpad T470s and I am having trouble with DW1560, I plugged it out from my previous hackintosh (Mojave) with Thinkpad X1C 3rd Generation and it is working fine there.

With T470s it is being detected fine without
  • AirportBrcmFixup + FakePCIID + FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext

but when I add AirportBrcmFixup.kext it is not being detected and system boot slowly.

I am using OpenCore as bootloader.

Can anyone please guide me how can I fix this as I want to use this for my daily work.

Thanks in advance.

and remove:
FakePCIID + FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext
 
Thanks @Feartech for the guidance. I really appreciate it.

Wifi works now. I have tested DW1560 and DW1820A both but still couple of issues:

1- Bluetooth is not detected at all (Screenshot attached )
2- Boot speed is too slow, it takes exactly 5 minutes at Apple logo screen ( attached )

I have also attached config.plist , please let me know how can I fix these.

you don't have a Dell so remove this:
Code:
<dict>
                <key>Arch</key>
                <string>Any</string>
                <key>BundlePath</key>
                <string>SMCDellSensors.kext</string>
                <key>Comment</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>Enabled</key>
                <true/>
                <key>ExecutablePath</key>
                <string>Contents/MacOS/SMCDellSensors</string>
                <key>MaxKernel</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>MinKernel</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>PlistPath</key>
                <string>Contents/Info.plist</string>
            </dict>

you can probably remove this:
Code:
<dict>
                <key>Arch</key>
                <string>Any</string>
                <key>BundlePath</key>
                <string>X86PlatformPluginInjector.kext</string>
                <key>Comment</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>Enabled</key>
                <false/>
                <key>ExecutablePath</key>
                <string>Contents/MacOS/X86PlatformPlugin</string>
                <key>MaxKernel</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>MinKernel</key>
                <string></string>
                <key>PlistPath</key>
                <string>Contents/Info.plist</string>
            </dict>

remove boot argument:
debug=0x100

you will need to do this to get your bluetooth working:
 
I have removed the followings:

Kexts: SMCDellSensors.kext and X86PlatformPluginInjector.kext
Boot: debug=0x100

But boot time is still the same.

I will check this bluetooth guide now, thanks for that.
 
Does it mean bluetooth is being detected?

- Boot time is still 5 minutes. Can you help me in checking this?

- Regarding bluetooth now it is showing as

Built-In: Yes

but still I am unable to access to bluetooth.
