BRCM4360 and Sierra 10.12.6 Issues

[fallen00sniper]

Why are you using a "WiFi patch SSDT"?
Or are you referring to the SSDT that I provided that injects an ACPI identity? (I would not consider that a "patch SSDT").

I am speaking of the one you provided, yes.

The path shown in ioreg is _SB.PCI0.PEX3. You should see if it matches the SSDT I created earlier.

 

[fallen00sniper]

Your hardware is quite old.
Old enough that I don't have any experience with it.

Well maybe I can find something online, DSDT patching for dummies maybe lol

I will look and see if it does match still.

It appears to be the same with origin and patchmatic dsdt and ioreg show the location of the card to be at

IOService:/AppleACPIPlatformExpert/PCI0@0/AppleACPIPCI/PEX3@1C,3/IOPP/pci14e4,43a0@0/Airport_Brcm4360/en1

However IOBuiltin is now False where it was True and IOControllerEnabled is still False

It is because you don't have the SSDT in ACPI/patched.

Ah I see, so any suggestions on what to try?

Seems obvious: Add the SSDT to ACPI/patched.

To me it did not since the kernel panic, but it did boot fine, must have been because I removed it from clover at boot instead of the aml file.

Still learning

IOBuiltin is True as expected, Wifi however is still locked to 'Turned Off'.

My new video card just arrived, 1050 Ti and I am hoping I can boot without making any changes other than maybe disabling the web driver if need be... so I may not be as quick to post.

Suggest you patch your DSDT.
I have no specific recommendations for that though as your hardware is old.
You might look at my laptop ACPI patching guide for clues.

Well maybe someone with the same hardware is still out there, as far as the Mobo is concerned and will be able to help further.

Thanks for trying.

GPU upgrade went by like breeze, so that's a upside for today.
