Hi Shiloh and everyone here!
I can say I successfully built this amazing hackintosh build, but I have three small issues. I only have one that really matters (#1) but maybe they are all connected so I am listing them here.
1. I used to have installed exactly how the guide was one year ago, and it's been bugging me for a while that my wifi would suddenly not find any networks...I would try everything rebooting, changing the automatic location, getting closer to the router, and nothing would make it come back. Then magically like one week later for no apparent reason it would locate my network again and internet would function properly for a couple of days sometimes even weeks at a time. Well this morning I decided I was going to do something about it and read that installing the IO80211Family Kext would fix it....now I get a Wi-Fi and bluetooth: No hardware installed" message. I found another driver called "All in One Ethernet Solution" and it fixed the bluetooth. So what can I do to fix my wifi?
2. Sometimes when I reboot my gray bar at the top will be black instead of gray and most times, the "open display preferences" icon (two computers) is transparent until I click on it.
3. Sometimes the sound will have some small glitches in it, especially when using itunes and logic pro x. Seems related to the cpu computing or something but it will happen even if I am doing nothing else.
Thanks for your time and amazing support!
I'm assuming you have a dual band router? Have you tried testing both 2.4 and 5ghz frequencies? Can you at least connect to the 2.4? I had a similar issue but only on my 5ghz frequency. My remedy was to force a separate channel on my router as my neighbors were already using some of the channels causing interference.
