on ac1360 wifi , the download speed is 38-39 on 5ghz

Yes, but unstable.

but system restarts after sleep,

Not tested due to both HD630 hacks have wake up black screen issue.

New kext is better but still no way make my 3160 AC stable @5G network, slow response, drop connection randomly.
Very stable @2.4G mode, 11n mode now work much better on this version, fast response, same download speed as @5G network .
3160 AC Speedtest result, @ 2.4G /11 b/g/n mixed mode /wifi channel 8/ channel width 20

So what do the logs say about it?

Be aware that if you run Windows and then just restart your machine then this kext will not work. You have to shutdown completely and use the power switch to start your machine. Booting straight into Catalina from power on then the kext works fine.

Edit: more firmware modules are added in this version, basically all Intel wifi modules, if you have older module like N2230 or newer module like AX200, try this kext, may work, but not sure.

Intel WiFi Driver Effort

Hi guys, Small update. I finally figured out what was the problem with vtable and built IntelWifi kext that uses IO80211Controller. You can find it in attachment. Also this kext have better matching for PCI devices so it checks whether PCI device is the one that driver knows. Firmwares for all...

AppleIntelWifi 0523 seems to be stable enough for install on /Library/Extensions (not recommended, for testing only), no more dependency KP issue during system update, make sure backup your system first.

Tested with both 3160 and 7265 AC hacks, installed kext to L/E and update from 10.15.4 to 10.15.5 (19F98), Clover ver 5114.
