Intel WiFi Driver Effort

Status
Not open for further replies.
All,

I've started work on a project to port the current-generation Intel WiFi drivers from Linux to OS X. Right now it's very, very early in a process that looks to be a very, very long one. I have a kext that identifies compatible hardware and loads and digests the matching firmware, but it doesn't yet do important things like, say, connect to a network.

Still, it's a start, and if anybody has a recent Intel WiFi card and wants to give it a spin and confirm whether it recognized the card successfully, there's a build with instructions here:

https://github.com/ammulder/AppleIntelWiFiMVM/releases/

The list of compatible hardware is here (it includes the Broadwell and Skylake NUC WiFi cards):

How to install this driver? Need help...
 
could the kext work on Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9462
 
could the kext work on Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9462


Most likely no.

Wondering if anyone else is seeing this error message:

(I'm connecting an intel wifi chip - tried both - AX200 and an 8265NGW to a macbook pro through a thunderbolt3 to PCIE connector)
 
I saw a forum from china today, someone compiled a kext for intel wifi by using/combine OS X community effort.
due to opensource credit issue, it was deleted..
but looks like it is possible to get intel wifi working now .. 9560 cnvi included..
a lot of more work needs to be done for a public release..

If they get the AX chips working that would be real nice along with the Bluetooth 5.0
 
Does Intel ethernet connect to the I218-V MAC OS 10.14.4 driver
