[HOW TO] Wi-Fi 6 Intel AX210 on macOS Sonoma

[Funnyland]

Hello,

In your Kexts folder there are "three files", all enabled (see below) !
You shoud investigate this and disable what is not needed :

a) keep only USBMap.kext ( and disable the other two files )
b) disable USBMap.kext ( and keep enabled the other two files)

Also, I think it is better to reorder the kexts in config.plist (i.e. USB mapping to come before Bluetooth related kexts).
But, it's up to you how to manage everything.

Cheers

Thanks

I deactivated USBMAP 1.0, the other two have to stay on otherwise USB won't work at all.

I also put everything USB in front of BT so that it is not perceived.

But it doesn't change anything about the WiFi, it still doesn't work

Here you can find some info about Compatibility, FAQ, Troubleshooting :

Documentation for OpenIntelWireless

Also, check if you can gather some info about your card, similar to the line below ( from my Hackintool ):

Vendor 0x8086 (Intel)
Device 0x2725

So I have both Kext one after the other and never together without success.

The alpha versions were also tested.

In Hackintoll the map is not displayed in Windows, yes and it works there too.

In Windows :
To find the list of hardware IDs for a given device :

1. Open Device Manager.
2. Find the device in the tree.
3. Right-select the device and select Properties.
4. Select the Details tab.
5. In the Property drop-down, select Hardware Ids or Compatible Ids.

================================================

In macOS open Hackintool > PCIe tab :

The map is at the bottom there.

When I press the magnifying glass on the far left, nothing happens.

For all others, extensions open.

Right mouse click only shows what is in the picture

OK, your device has the same ID as mine, 0x2725, but it is disabled !
Try to re-download it, may be something went wrong first time :

Also you may try to temporarily disable some kext and test ( BT, LAN, etc)

By the way : How does Innie.kext help ?

 

[Edhawk]

Innie.kext tells macOS to treat internal drives as internal, not as external, as is sometimes the case.

 

[Funnyland]

So in the meantime I just updated Ventra from Sonoma. Strangely enough, it works better with the EFI I have than doing a clean install. Much more liquid.

But no matter: Innie.kext has been there the whole time.

Of course I also installed the corresponding Airportltlwm Sonoma 2.3.0 but there is no improvement with the old one.

As a test, I deactivated BT and Lan once, but that didn't work

 

[Edhawk]

Check the following:

1. WiFi card is enabled in the bios.
2. WiFi card is firmly seated in the M.2 connector.
3. The antenna cables are firmly seated on the card.

I have now deactivated "Innie" and when I press Hackintool - Pcie and the magnifying glass, the Donwaload folder now opens (it wasn't there before). For all other devices, the Extensions folder opens.

@Edhawk yes to all 3 points. It runs perfectly under Windows


I've tried "itlwm" and HeliPort and deactivated the other kext but it doesn't work either. Heliport says when starting "itlwm" is not running but is activated
