Many people have had success with this card due to the way different laptop brands handle PCI requests.

Hi.

My investigations have shown that Apple makes .__ files inside CLOVER folder.

Also other Kexts didnt work such as AirportFixup caused problems.

And also the latest version of Brcm from rehabman did not working, i had to use a specific version in this repository.

The patch i have settled with so far is: Using the Brcm patch files from this enclosed Zip, The kernel patches from the 1st post, and i have left the standard IO80211 Kexts from apple (The less mods the better.)


Anyway, now i have bluetooth working which is great!

I tried guide in attached file and it worked for 10.14.4. But after upgrade to 10.14.5 I can't get it to work. I only see that wifi is turned off and I can't enable it.

This card is working good,
the PCI request part is
You have to disable ASPM for the specific PCIe port.

And how can you do that if you don't have an option for it in the bios?

for me, I followed a tutorial online, (https://ppundsh.github.io/posts/9add/) to unlock all hidden options
it's in chinese, but if more people are interested, I might translate it.
It should be working for most AMI bios, mine is AMI Aptio V bios.

This card is better than the BCM94352ZAE, I can get upto 480Mbps download
BTW, I took the screenshot with (https://github.com/LongSoft/CrScreenshotDxe)

not actually request, maybe PCI connection configuration.
