I am on a Lenovo M93P tiny pc on Mojave. I previously tried to use a BCM94352HMB but after a week I just cannot get it to work.

So i bought this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IEU7UZ0/?tag=tonymacx86com-20

I thought I could plug it in and it would work, but I am a noob and of course I was wrong. I have no idea what needs to be done. It shows up in my IO and Hackintool as "802.11n NIC." But nothing shows in Network and the light on the unit doesn't come on.

I've attached screenshots of Hackintool and IOreg, my currently installed kexts from L/E and /other, as well as my config.plist and zipped EFI.

Any help hugely appreciated

Hi there.

You might have covered this already, but you did download and install the Mac driver package?

From the screens you posted, the wireless chip is not being correctly identified. The driver should cure that.

Also, if this new adapter is the future then remove the brcm*.kexts and the Airportbrcm*.kext, and rebuild your kextcaches with Terminal - sudo kextcache -i /
 
That worked! Thanks so much!
