Not Recongizing BCM94322

[superduperfritzy]

I just ordered this (http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Half-Mi...156?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51bc593a14) off ebay, said to work straight of out the box.
I put in in my hackintosh's mini pcie slot and the computer doesnt recongize its there.
I havent downloaded any kexts or anything, do I need to do any of that or whats my problem?
My motherboard is the ga-h97n-wifi

Check in DPCIManager->PCI List to see if it is listed on the PCIe bus.

I used DPCIManager and it shows up in the PCI list, but its listed as BCM43224. Still wont show up in the System Perferences Network or System Report Wifi though.

The seller misrepresented the device in the listing.

But it can still work:

I dont really understand what Im supposed to do in that guide, theres a lot of different options but none of them say they work for my card.

BCM943224HMS:
- FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_BCM94352Z_as_BCM94360CS2.kext: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Fake-PCI-ID. Install with Kext Wizard to /S/L/E.

I did that and rebooted but it just gave me a kernel panic. Im think im going to give up on this card, do you know of a mini pcie card thats 100% guranteed to work out of the box without the need of any kexts?

Make sure you added no other kexts in an effort to fix your WiFi (system must be clean as far as networking).

I thing i noticed when installing the kexts was the bcm94352z_as_bcm94360cs2 kext had two options, one release and one debug. I just used debug the first time and the release one the second time. I dont know if that made a difference but it didnt kernel panic this time. However, it still didn't do anything, system report still shows no pci installed.
edit: it froze a couple seconds adter i posted this, so I rebooted and it froze again but on the apple loading screen when booting. So I through in some boot flags, reinstalled the multibeast settings and the computer boots and works fine now. (except for wifi)

It sounds like you have other serious issues with your install.
