[Guide] Airport - PCIe Half Mini v2

[RehabMan]

I recently purchased Azurewave AW-CE123H to use with my Lenovo G580 model 20157. When i install the card and power on it does not boot up. It does not even show the bios. Is the card faulty or the card doesn't support my system.

It is one of those. Your BIOS may also implement a whitelist. You should probably download the service manual for your laptop to see if one of the official replacement parts for the WiFi is compatible with OS X.

Looks like your Jmicron card reader drivers are loading against that device. Are you certain you edited the correct Info.plist?

 

[christian_grg]

I thought I was which one should I be editing

Ideally, just download toledaARPT.kext and modify its Info.plist to support your card.

Officially supported cards on my system.

Intel 6150NX BSB
BCM4313 MOW
Liteon AR9285 HB95 BGN
BCM4313HMGB BGN+BT
Liteon WB195 BGN+BT

Wish anybody would help me in removing the whitelist.

The two Liteon cards are compatible with OS X.

Can anyone help out with my broadcom card im testing out.

Vendor : 14e4
Device : 4357
Name : BCM43225

The patch says find the device name and change RP07 in the patch to whatever it is (Looks like RP04 for mine).

Then, if no PXSX, manually add Device (ARPT) after Name (_ADR, 0x001C000x) to dsdt, which I've done under RP04.

Finally, change PXSX to ARPT in the patch file, and then apply.

It does add the details, but then goes to over 100 errors on compilation.

What am I missing here ?

Issue is the existing Method (_DSM... in the device; delete.
Correct edit:
