Hi guys,

I updated GitHub repo and built kexts for Sierra and HighSierra. Could you please download kext and try to load it on your system? If kext would be loaded correctly, you should be able to see WiFi adapter in network settings.

You can grab kext here: https://github.com/rpeshkov/black80211/releases


I tried to load the kext on my laptop (can provide models/etc if needed) and I got this:
Code:

Which version of MacOS do you have?
 
With latest updates? I have 10.12.6 and it works fine. Maybe you have an older version?
EDIT: About this Mac says: 10.12.5. I am updating it as I write this.
This machine has been left untouched for several months, I even forgot how to use OSX.. *blush*

Could you please execute this command on your machine?

Code:
sudo kextlibs -xml Black80211.kext

It will show required dependencies and versions.

I uploaded new version for Sierra only. The most important update there is that PCI matching removed. I should've done this earlier, because it was set up only for Centrino N130 card that I have :(

This install is pretty much useless now, I had to restart it mid-update and now everything is crashing in a loop, but I managed to get you the output of your command for now. I will try what I can until I am forced to fully reinstall it from scratch. Which at this point I will probably put High Sierra.

Code:
