Hi toleda,

 

Can you please have a look at my problem?

I've got a Fenvi FV-T919(BCM94360CD) installed on my desktop. BCM94360CD can support native handoff, airdrop. But there is an issue-If wake up from sleep, the Wi-Fi can connect to router(sometimes with a exclamation mark), but actually it can not access the Internet, can't open any websites. I don't know why this happens. Is that because of the country code? I live in New Zealand. I have read through your topic, still have no ideas to locate. Here attached my ioreg file.

Anyone who recommend AR9285(+bt) combocard for snow leopard?

See Post #1/Atheros Device_IDs

WiFi supported with injection.

BT not supported, mixed results with 3rd party Atheros/BT solutions

Suggestion: WiFi/AR9285 and BT/Broadcom USB (GYLME)

I am having this same problem with a BCM94360CD as well. edit: I guess it is a BCM943602CS actually. Still a native chip used in the MBP 12,1.

 

It shows as US/FCC as it should since I live in the US. I have no kexts, ACPI changes, Clover patches, or anything else that should be affecting WiFi.

 

I am on the latest version of 10.12.6 with Clover, on an ASRock X99 Pro4 (latest BIOS), and a Xeon 4-core CPU, and a GT 740.

 

Any ideas?

With info provided, no.  Attach requested files, Post #1/Problem Reporting.

Hm, I guess I hit attach on the files but not also "Submit."

 

Anyway, I made a new keychain and ran first aid. The problems appears to be resolved. I do not think it was WiFi related per se. 

 

Thank you for your time.

I have a BCM94532Z. I'm running into the issue that my wifi is visible, but I can't enable it (nothing happens when clicking turn on) and Bluetooth is just missing altogether.
 
I tried pretty much every method and patch I could find, but my current setup is:
  • Kext: FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext, FakePCIID.kext, BrcmPatchRAM2.kext, BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext in /L/E (also tried /S/L/E and EFI other)
  • fcvo patch in config.plist (see attachment)
 
I'm pretty much out of things to try, and hope somebody can help. I attached all files requested in post #1, except for Airport console logs as there were none.

IOReg does not show bcrm kexts, where are the kexts installed? Antennas?


BT is not present, hardware problem.

BT should be present oob on this card?

How did you name ARP0?

IOReg/USB is not working or not configured

BT should be present oob on this card?

My mistake, BT shows as BCM2045, should be BCM2070

2045 is not BT4

so that means DW1830 has 2 versions, 1 with BT4 and other with an older generation of BT? 

 

or does that mean, the system doesn't recognize the bt chipset as it should be?

 

http://wikidevi.com/wiki/Dell_Wireless_1830_(DW1830)

 

"Dell Wireless 1830 (DW1830) - Broadcom BCM43602
BT: Broadcom BCM20703A1 (DW1830 Bluetooth 4.1 LE)
Foxconn U40H039.00 OUI:60:6D:C7 (image) (vs)"

 

i checked on rehabman depository for the cards firmware list and 1830 is listed as:

[0a5c:6410] 20703A1 RAM download - DW1830 43602 (Dell Wireless 1830 Bluetooth 4.1 LE)
BCM20703A1_001.001.005.0214.0422 (v4518)

Hi Hervé! That's what i don't understand, the device id seems good, the DW1830 was bought on ebay as an AC WIFI + 4.1LE BT. for me it seems the good one. and yes i've see that wikidev report also BCM2045A0.

 

and the issue is: in system profiler, under USB, i have the BT device listed as BCM2045A0

 

post-2058756-0-98221900-1503920947_thumb.png

 

but under BT i have the 20703A1 for chipset.

 

post-2058756-0-67759800-1503920955_thumb.png

 

so. how can i get this one to work? first try the latest FakePCIID kext + the two bcrmpatch?

Hi Hervé.

 

So without the kexts, i see BT device under USB in sysprofiler as BCM2045A0 but no BLUETOOTH available for the system (nothing under bluetooth section of sysprofiler)

 

here attached are the files you asked for i think

 

tried your 2 firmware patching method with same issue. with kext bt available but not scanning/pairing

 

with no kext BT still not visible in sysprofiler except in USB devices as ◊

some news. i tested in another similar unit (ZOTAC EN 1060) the same card. on this one i have windows.

 

i could check the reading of bt card in the properties and it is the good bt device.

 

post-2058756-0-53436300-1504460143_thumb.png

 

i then searched work from https://github.com/syscl/XPS9350-macOSand got the clover patch and the 2 brcm kext without full success.

 

now bt is recognized a 20703 in both bluetooth and usb sections of sysprofiler.

still not scanning though.

i’m going to try mess with the antenna as this card has 3 connecors vs 2 antennas in my Central unit.

 

Success, the antena order was different than what i read somewhere, bt is J1 not j2

 

Now i have to try replicate this on the EN1070
