WI-FI on Asus F541U (X541UV)

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi, I have an Asus F541UV (X541UV mainboard) and I have successfully installed El Capitan. It has a Realtek RTL8723BE installed and I tried to install an Atheros 5B95 but OS X can't find the hardware. I'm afraid the BIOS has a whitelist of cards allowed. Can anyone help me? I'm trying to find an OS X compatible whitelisted card, or, as an alternative, a patched BIOS for my laptop.
Eventually I will buy an external USB WiFi, what's the SMALLEST USB dongle OS X compatible?

Thank you very much.
Please, can you give us a guide for install

While you're waiting...

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.
http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html

Although you should read the FAQ for an overview of issues, the Clover guide is linked from the first question: "Q. Where do I start?", just after the bold face "Clover Guide".
Here is a direct link, just to be clear:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

Also, your profile must be filled out with complete details as requested in the FAQ, again under "Q. Where do I start?". All seven details requested are equally important.

And if you have an issue (after following the guide), or on any other problem, you must provide a detailed description of the problem including information that helps us understand what you're doing. Always attach "Problem Reporting" files as per FAQ.

The required files and data are fully detailed in the last question in the FAQ:
"Q. What are typical "Problem Reporting" files?"

Hi Lucas Speed, can you post your guide for install on asus f541u, because I have the same laptop and I have a lot of problem to install sierra. Thank
 
I don't have any guide as at the time I only followed guides already present on this site. Anyway, due to the lack of support for trackpad Elan1200 I resolved to format again and installed Linux Mint...
