Hello, I have an ACer Swift 3 and the original wifi card was an Intel which was supported with Hackintosh.
I purchased a Broadcom BCM94352Z (Dell DW1560) and before I ran Hackintosh again I checked to see whether the card worked in Windows 10 - both the wifi and the bluetooth worked in Windows 10.

I installed Hackintosh Sierra (using clover) and everything works except the bluetooth and wifi.

I downloaded DPCIManager and my audio device, hardrive and graphics appear - but the wifi card section is empty.
Any help? :)

(Sorry if this has been asked before, I've searched on this so much and can't find anything, thank you!)
Here are some details of my laptop, it is known to work with hackintosh as there is a dedicated guide made which I followed)

Acer Swift 3
i3-6100U core 2.30GHz
8GB Ram
128GB storage
Bios is: Insydeh20 rev 5.0

I have attached images of the DPCIManager screen I'm currently seeing and my wifi card inserted!

How to enable it to work? None of the kexts I've tried work :/
Such as:

- FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi
- FakeSMC
- BrcmPatchRAM2
- BrcmFirmwareData
 
Do I install the BrcmPatchRAM2.kext?
It says in the readme file that:
  • "BrcmPatchRAM2.kext: for 10.11 or later"
Is there anything I should do before I install it?

BrcmPatchRAM2.kext is for bluetooth... nothing to do with WiFi.
But if you want bluetooth, then yes... you'll need BrcmPatchRAM2.kext.
 
Ah my bad, I'm such a noob.
I'm not fussed on having bluetooth at all. All I want is working WiFi.
Do I just install these kexts to get the internet working?
  • FakePCIID.kext
  • FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext

More is required.
