Hello,
I'm currently looking to get some help/ direction on how to set this card up on sierra, any help/links to similar things would be appreciated
Many thanks,
SteelEdgedKnife
 
I'm particularly useless at this, nothing gives me instructions, it's all really confusing and if anyone can give me a hand understanding how to do things that would be lovely

from the faq:
BCM94352 requirements:
- FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext (was FakePCIID_BCM94352Z_as_BCM94360CS2.kext): https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-Fake-PCI-ID. Install with Kext Wizard to /S/L/E.
- BrcmPatchRAM: https://github.com/RehabMan/OS-X-BrcmPatchRAM. Install with Kext Wizard to /S/L/E. Make sure you read the README as the kexts you install depend on OS X version and installation location.
- 5Ghz patch for WiFi documented here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/104850-guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.html (Note: 10.12.x requires the 'fcvo' patch and NOT the 5ghz patch, but the fcvo patch is incorrectly referred to as a 5ghz patch at toleda's guide). The fcvo patch is clearly documented here: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/readme-common-some-unsolved-problems-in-10-12-sierra.202316/
- handoff patch for bluetooth documented here: http://www.tonymacx86.com/network/104850-guide-airport-pcie-half-mini-v2.html

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so, make sure to download these files:
FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext and BrcmPatchRAM2.kext and BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext

and use kext wizard to install them to System/Library/Extensions

then you need to edit your config.plist and to add in:

Code: 
<dict>
    <key>Comment</key>
    <string>AirPortBrcm4360 - fcvo</string>
    <key>Disabled</key>
    <false/>
    <key>Find</key>
    <data>gflSqgAAdSk=</data>
    <key>Name</key>
    <string>AirPortBrcm4360</string>
    <key>Replace</key>
    <data>gflSqgAAZpA=</data>
</dict>
 
EDIT: it seems i don't have the ability to send/receive messages, the question i was going to ask is where in the plist i should put this

Can you message me? I think the questions i need to answer are more specific to me than anyone else

or you can use xcode and then pop in the following instead:

Comment: AirPortBrcm4360 - fcvo, 10.12.x (credit the-darkvoid)
MatchOS: 10.12.x
Name: AirPortBrcm4360
Find: <81f952aa 00007529>
Replace: <81f952aa 00006690>
