Im using AR9285 and after edit plist file wifi work with OpenCore-BigSur/ Catalina. But can't work with Clover-Big Sur/ or Catalina, what should I do, thank?

 

problem already solved in the next commit, it has been solved and is working without problems!

 

I leave here a folder with Clover r5127 where it solves in BigSur but using BOOT.efi as well as CloverX64.efi and the kext that are already ready for AR9285 that I use myself

It works! It works! It works!
AR9462 and Big Sur 11.0.1

Hi I tried the kext for Wifi Atheros 9485. The wifi works, the download / upload also works quite well.
The only thing that doesn't fit me is the range of channels that it can see and the wifi icon always shows only one notch. Even if I'm very close to the wifi source?
Is there something I'm wrong?

I think you can. Use it exactly in that way as any other kext

Funcionando excelente en Mac Big Sur 11.1 

 Atheros 9285 y OC 0.6.5 gracias y muchos exitos

@pico joe, according the attachment of @MaLd0n files, what you mean no need injector?

 

i've been running big sur 11.01 trying to add 9485 but still no luck yet.

 

Edit: so im using TPLink WN781ND V.2 PCIe with AR9485 chipset and its now working after combining the kexts above with ATH9KInjector.kext, didn't compare those ven id yet but for now its ok for me. thanks @pico joe and @MaLd0n, absolute great work. thank you.

I think i am almost there, i have put your 2 kext in place and inject them in config.plist it boots to the desktop and i can play with the OS but eventually (under 1 minute) it will crash. If i remove wifi card OS is stable with kext injected (no change to config.plist) 

 

Big SUr 11.2 but was doing the same thing with 11.1

 

Ever heard of similar scenario ?

 

 

Fine. WDN4800 is working. 10.15.7

Works Ok for me, any modern macOS (Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur), WDN4800

added MinKernel to config, we dont need these kexts in Sierra/Hierra

Works for Atheros AR956x?

if it worked with Hierra, it will work with this kext too, it is the same kext

It didn’t work for me. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or it’s some problem with OpenCore. I put both Kexts in OC/Kexts and updated my config.plist...

You need different device-ids in the kext for different atheros models

are you sure yours are matching?

<key>IONameMatch</key>
			<array>
				<string>pci168c,30</string>
				<string>pci168c,2a</string>
				<string>pci106b,0086</string>
				<string>pci168c,1c</string>
				<string>pci168c,23</string>
				<string>pci168c,24</string>
			</array>

this is from the original kext

what is ID of your card?

I don’t know, how do I find out? 

 

It's 0x168C,36

I don't know what I did, but it's working now! Thanks

replace B8640000 009090
 64 is regdomain code
