Broadcom WiFi/Bluetooth [Guide]

Does anyone know how to make BT have less dropouts with audio?
 
Ok I think I've had it with BT/Wifi issues, if anyone can help that would be great.

I have the BCM94360CS (Which supports BT 4.2) card and i tried all antenna combos, and the only solution to avoid droputs on Bluetooth is to turn off the Wifi radio from macOS.

What is the best PCIe combo card that I can get on a Hackintosh? I assume there is no BT 5.0 supports natively.
 
  1. Bluetooth recently stopped working after 1 year+ of not making any updates to machine. BT can be turned on and off, but will not connect to devices that were previously found and will not find new devices.
  2. 10.13.6 (17G65)/ASRock Z270 Killer SLI AC/i7 7700K/ GeForce GTX 1070 Ti

It seems that the ASUS ROG STRIX B360-I GAMING should have replaceable wifi for sure, but what about Asus ROG STRIX H370-I GAMING?
Yes, all Asus Coffee Lake motherboards

Does someone tested the wifi m.2 replacement on Asus ROG 10Gen mobo like B460I and H470i ?
 
BCM4352 (Asus Z97i Plus) on 10.15 Catalina - I have followed the tutorial and BT/WiFi is not being recognized. New to the Hackintosh. Edit: Got the log files

yes, just yesterday i made build on b460i , replacing stock intel wifi with BCM94360NG.
installation is easy and it worked without any drivers, all functions airdrop/handoff/unlock-with-watch are ok.
BUT:
for some reason it works only on 1 spacial streams (NSS:1) instead of 2, that means - maximum theoretical speed halved. and in reality even more, on different channels it can drop so badly.

people reporting having same issue (and not having it under windows, so it is not hardware issue)
 
@toleda

just a correction, both the BCM94360CSAX and BCM94360CD have 4 antenna.
 
Hello,
what is now best adapter for Dell laptop and Windows 7 / 10 + MacOS combo? In first post are a bit old card, exist something faster with Bluetooth 5 etc?
