So I replaced an apple provided kext with a patched one so that my wifi card can be supported using Apple drivers.

 

I loaded the patched kext using kextload but when I ran ifconfig, the wifi card is not listed. It only showed up after rebooting the device.

 

Is there a way to restart networking services without rebooting the device.

 

Thanks

I'm not on a macOS right now, so I can't give you exactly, what you need.

But look for the networking service with "launchctl". You can restart it with that too...
