<< Solved >> I'm struggling with detecting my Fenvi T919 on my BigSur X299

[trs96]

If it's of any help. I've got a BCM94360CD installed in a Big Sur test system without any BCM Fixup kexts. Works with no problems. It's not a Fenvi branded card. I simply bought it on Ebay and installed it into a PCIe x1 adapter. It may be a genuine card from Apple but not certain of that. BS version is 11.2

Yours looks remarkably similar to that which the OP shows in Post #43 :

I don't see "Wake on Wireless - Supported" in the OP's and the status says "Off." Why would that be ?

Good question. Maybe try turning it on in another OS.
The OP reports that it will not turn on in macOS.

clicking on Turn Wi-Fi On, just loops red to yellow 3 times for a few seconds, then goes to red again.

Wake on Wireless

I think I've seen this as an option in Bios, I will go and check if I could toggle it.

never mind, it was Wake on Lan Enable, and it is enabled.

I haven't been following this thread closely. What SMBIOS is the OP using on the X299 system ? That may also make a difference. I'm using iMac 15,1 which has a similar Broadcom Wifi/BT card installed. It's always worked OOB no matter what version of macOS is installed.

I'm wondering, when I first inserted smbios, my Processor name changed from i9-9960x to 16-core intel xeon W. I didn't pay this fact much attention.

What happens with the card in Windows 10 once the drivers from the Fenvi website for Win10 are installed ?
