1. Use DCPIManager to confirm your wifi board is working, and to identify your chip version
2. Use this table to choose your Atheros card id string:
pci168c,2a AR9281
pci168c,24 AR5418/5133
pci168c,2a AR9280
pci168c,30 AR9380
pci168c,34 AR94621
pci168c,2a AR9283
pci168c,2b AR9285
pci168c,2e AR9287
pci168c,2b AR9285
pci168c,2e AR9287
pci168c,2a AR9280
pci168c,30 AR9380
pci168c,32 AR94851
pci168c,32 AR94851
3. Get IO80211Family.kext and edit IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros40.kext/Contents/Info.plist, adding your card id. For instance, for good old TL-WN881ND with AR9287 chip, add this:
<string>pci168c,2e</string>
5. Use Kext Wizard to:
- install the modified IO80211Family to S/L/E
- repair permissions and rebuild cache before rebooting
- confirm it is loaded after reboot (search 'athe')
