I am also having a problem with a DW1560 (14e4 43b1) in 10.13.1. After adding an SSDT (attached) , WiFi can be added into System Preferences->Network, but I can not turn it on.

Attached my ARPT SSDT, IOreg, Sys Profile, and DPCI manager screenshots, and Clover folder. I have removed all kernel patches per this thread, but nothing.

 

No BT appears either, even with BrcmPatchRAM2 and BrcmFirmwareData.

Can't turn DW1560 On.zip

Should I just remake the usb installer and start over fresh ?

Try with Recovery HD. If you can turn Wifi on Recovery, it means that you have a patched AirPortBrcm4360.kext. In that case, reinstall the os from Recovery. There's no need to erase the disk.

With BCM94352 you should load AirPortBrcm4360 and not AirPortBrcmNIC. You are injecting a wrong device id. Try with this SSDT: SSDT-ARPT-RP03-4352.aml.zip

Recovery doesn’t show WiFi at all just Ethernet but even that doesn’t work unless there is a terminal comman to turn it on

Write this on terminal in Recovery:

kextstat | grep -v com.apple

Attach the output.

Thanks! That allows me turn WiFi off/on and have it work normally.

 

However, still no BT is showing up anywhere. I assume that means a USB problem, so I'll go see what I can find.

Make sure you fit the card into a combo PCIe/USB slot. Otherwise, no Bluetooth...

 

Hm, I am using the same NGFF slot on the motherboard that came with an Intel 3168 by default. The Intel card has AC+BT, so I had assumed that slot would work with any other model as well.

 

Is my assumption incorrect?

That is unfortunate.

 

Just out of curiosity, how is that the Intel card manages to get WiFi+BT in that slot, but the Broadcom card does not? Does Intel run BT via PCI-e?

I've never heard about BT over PCIe.

Be sure to be within the port limit. Otherwise, you need to patch AppleUSBXHCIPCI.kext to raise the port limit (from 15 to 26).

Wikedone--I went back to 10.12.6 just to check on a fresh install and am having similar problems. I finally applied the fcvo patch manually in HexEdit and re-installed the IO80211Family.kext and have working WiFi again. If your device ID is not natively supported then add it to the Info.plist in Brcm4360.

 

The really odd thing is that this only happens to me on a fresh install. With my other 10.12.6 the EXACT same EFI folder has WiFi loaded properly.

 

With those changes I can remove FakePCIID, all kernel patches for WiFi, and any SSDT for wifi.
