giutor Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Hi, I tried to install quite a lot of IONetworkingFamily.kexts but none was working. I'm wondering if there is a kext for this wired card. If there is not, would u please tell me how to create one from scratch?

Alex009988 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hi. If your dev-id is 16B3, so try this version. After that look at Console, IOReg and about that mac(PCI, Ethernet) DebugBCM5722D.kext.zip 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293985-kext-for-broadcom-bcm57786/#findComment-1969303 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the same error as in the attached pictures. I wonder where is line 226 in the Info.plist file as the grep output shows line 23. By the way, I do not want "ready to eat food". I DO wish to learn how to hack drivers as you and rals2007 are doing. Can you please point me to the guidelines? Do you have any clue?

Alex009988 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 <key>DTSDKBuild</key> <string>12D75</string> Maybe the reason that you have the version lower than 12D75. Then, you have two options. First, you bake kext on your own by Xcode with my promts. Second, you need to update the system. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/293985-kext-for-broadcom-bcm57786/#findComment-1969369 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I DO really appreciate the time you spending with me. I can't update 10.8.2 since I do not have any Internet connection because both networks cards are unrecognized. I will use Xcode with your prompts, thanks. I have attached the new error messagges.
