Thanks igorbelchior !
After several tests on sierra update, i wanted to make a fresh clean re-install of ElCapitan and your guide is very useful.
Almost everything is working ... except the wifi.
When i start using this laptop with macos couple years ago, i replaced the original wifi card like you but with DW1702 (Atheros AR9285 chipset) and wifi just worked.
I used a patched version of AirPortAtheros40.kext with addition of the line :
Just in case i've check and no problem on windows 10 and ubuntu so the hardware is ok.Code:<string>pci168c,2b</string>
I've tried to re-use the same kext but still don't work (not even seen in hardware list).
Also tried the airport_kext_enabler (toledaARPT.kext) method as described the "airport-pcie-half-mini" guide with no more success.
Would you have an idea to make mine (DW1702) work ?
Do you use the dsdtEdit method ?
You need to restore your IO80211Family.kext (run the OS X installer).
Then use either toledaARPT.kext or ProbookAtheros.kext as per FAQ.
