xangel9626 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I have a Vostro 1700 with 10.8.4 installed on a testing hard drive. My issue is my HP branded BCM94322MC that worked perfectly fine in 10.8.1 is not being recognized with the default IO80211Family.kext. If I use the modified kext from my 10.8.1, the card shows up but I get the connection timeout error. Anyone have any ideas how I can get this working in 10.8.4?

xangel9626 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 HP Wireless LAN Card SPS: 487330-001 , AS: 395514-001 Works in 10.8.1 and 10.8.3 using modified kext, not working in 10.8.4. Anyone have any clue why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onixs Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Does your modified kext also include IO80211Family, or just the broadcom kext? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xangel9626 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Actually it is the IO80211Family that I modify. I add the identifier for my wireless card in AirPortBrcm43224 within the IO80211Family that comes with 10.8.4 and it does not recognize my wireless card. If I use the modified IO80211Family from 10.8.1 in 10.8.4, the wireless card gets recognized, but I get the connection timeout when I try to connect to a network.

xangel9626 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Still no answers anyone? The only thing I haven't tried is to rebrand my card to an Apple Airport, I wasn't able to get all the packages installed in Ubuntu and I'm concerned that if I rebrand, my card will not work in Win8 properly. I would really just like to avoid the rebranding and finding either a DSDT fix or a kext that will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xangel9626 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 I got bored and rebranded the card. It works fine in Windows 8 and it shows up as Airport Extreme in 10.8.1 with modified kext, but it's still not showing up in 10.8.4 with default kext. Tried using the modified kext and it shows up as an Airport Extreme but I still cannot connect to any networks. WTF is wrong with this thing?
