nekomata Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I can't find any information on getting my laptop's internal wireless to work. It is an Atheros AR9485 (thats what Windows says) with the HW ID as: PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0032&SUBSYS_1838103C&REV_01 Other people said to buy a new card but I can't afford a new wireless card as I spent all my money on the Mountain Lion DVD Any ways to get my wireless to work and I would be so happy. I couldn't have gotten a different computer because this one was a present from some friends in the US (but i dont like windows so there). thx in advance guys and please help. PS also if you know how to get AMD Radeon 7640G to work.

LatinMcG Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 if u fake device id 30 instead of 32 it might work. cant guarantee anything.. look at the ar9285 fix in dsdt and modify it. im pretty sure if u change the card it will deny boot with error of unsuported wireless card (whitelist) and i dont know if there is a bios mod with NO Whitelist for sp57048.exe or sp58982.exe bios Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/284378-hp-dv6-7029wm7010us-wireless-ar9485/#findComment-1866960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
