Notes - Broadcom
  1. 5 GHz - not working (BCM94352)

I made ​​a binary patch for the activation of a range of 5GHz on Broadcom BCM94352HMB.

File Name: AirPortBrcm4360
Find bytes: 01 58 54
Replace bytes: 01 58 58

For terminal:

Code:
sudo perl -pi -e 's|\x01\x58\x54|\x01\x58\x58|g' /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortBrcm4360.kext/Contents/MacOS/AirPortBrcm4360

Code:
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions/

Wait 30 sec, Restart, Use...


This patch is tested on my Broadcom BCM94352HMB from Lenovo FRU# 03T7135, 20200381.

Module AzureWave AW-CE123H need verification.

@Skvo, outstanding work!
Confirmed 5 GHz working: BCM94352 and AW-CE123H in 10.9, 10.9.1 and 10.9.2
Minor syntax edit to patch.

Who patch does not work, show your IOREG after the patch.
 
I patched the original IO80211Family.kext, but i made a backup just in case as always. Attached is a screen capture of IOReg

EDIT: Now works PERFECT, i patched again the original kext with new patch. Thank you.

Hi Skvo,

Many thanks for your post and link ....

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner but I have been updating all my systems to 10.9.2 for the last two days.

I tried your patch and it seems to be working ....

Awesome work dude, will keep an eye on how things are for the next few days and get back to you.
Your patch has been the last part of the puzzle for getting my card working :-

PID=0x3403 VID=0x13d3 - BCM94352 - Azureware AW-CE123H

Update:
I created a clearer install guide for this card here. Cheers
Jay
 
I am getting an error about invalid signature for your kext.
Is that the only signature error? What problem do you want to solve; working wifi or no error messages?

Solutions:
1. use dsdt edits or edited ssdt and remove the kext.
2. Use Clover/kexts/10.9
3. Add Info.plist to another kext, remember to add it back each time the kext is updated
4. Ignore
