What exactly happens when you click on App Store?
Or is it not even in the Apple Menu?
What happens when you try to connect by cabled etheret instead of wifi?

"Your device or computer could not be verified. Contact support for assistance."

Or is it not even in the Apple Menu?

-> Happens to me in Teamviewer (Access to TV Server is forbitten), MacStore when i try to login with my AppleID
-> havnt tried facetime, but itunes works and i can access my account

What happens when you try to connect by cabled etheret instead of wifi?

Working ethernet connection is required for the App Store whether or not you use it. So your choices are set up your onboard ethernet if possible or buy an NIC such as this:

I did the latter. Works perfect OOB.

Bought an Apple branded BCM94322MC and a Mini PCI-E to PCI-E Express card with 3 Antennas off ebay.

Had to buy packet of screws from Radio shack to fasten the wireless card to the PCI card. Wrapped the antennae wires under the card to keep it compact. Cut a section of the shield out with box cutter for antenna wires to get it to fit correctly.

Popped the card into my hackintosh and it was immediately recognized. Wifi up and running perfectly.

"Wake on Wireless" ?

I have successfully rebranded a BCM4322 but I noticed on some peoples Sys Info description it says "Wake on Wireless: Supported". Some setups seem to list it and some (maybe most) do not. It is listed after the "Supported Channels:" and above the "AirDrop: Supported"

Any insights? I would like to be able to wake my hacky over wireless.

here is another forum memebers screen shot that shows "Wake on Wireless"

I can tell you one thing and that picture is not from a BCM4322, but likely from a 21.
Not enough supported channels to be a 22.
