Wondering if someone would be so kind to share a fix for my bluetooth. Pane shows on but wireless mouse or any other bluetooth device will not connect. I have literally tried everything I know and need assistance.

Wifi and everything else works, but the bluetooth.

Specs:
Plus screenshots with further details below.


Laptop:
Acer TravelMate P643M


Pci-e Card installed is:
Atheros Qualcomm Ar9462
Ar5b22 Wb222 Half Mini Pci-e Bluetooth Bt Wireless WiFi Card


Running a Chameleon Legacy boot loader here are my settings

Wireless works fine bluetooth does not. Sorry I thought I mentioned that in the entail thread. I replaced the intel wireless card which the bluetooth worked fine but the wireless did not. Pic of the other card below.

Will this intel card be suitable for wifi? I know the Bluetooth for this intel card works. What sucks is the Atheros wifi works perfect with mojave but the Bluetooth does not. With the intel card its the opposite with Bluetooth works but wifi does not. Direction on where to go from here would be greatly appreciated.

One question. Will this card work in any laptop? The laptop repair manual only list 4 different cards.

Hmm but it says that yours is a half mini slot...we might need to double check to make sure that's the right Broadcom chip for the job

Edit:
From @toleda Broadcom WiFi/Bluetooth [Guide] we have the following:
Broadcom WiFi + BT (2 antennas, except as noted)
  • PCIe/x1: BCM94360CD - native WiFi/ac and BT4LE (3 antennas)
  • PCIe/x1: BCM94331CD - native WiFi and BT4LE
  • M.2: BCM943602BAED/DW1830 - native WiFi/ac and BT4LE (3 antennas)
    • Laptop issues/solutions, see jaymonkey/Post #138
  • M.2: BCM94360CS2 - native WiFi/ac and BT4LE
  • M.2: BCM94352Z/AzureWave AW-CE162NF/DW1560 - supports WiFi/ac and BT4LE
  • M.2: BCM94350ZAE/DW1820A - native WiFi/ac and BT4LE
  • Half mini: BCM94360HMB/AzureWave AW-CB160H - native WiFi/ac and BT4LE (3 antennas)
  • Half mini: BCM94352 HMB/AzureWave AW-CE123H - supports WiFi/ac and BT4LE
