nope, i've tried it. don't know why. Furthermore on sierra it works without kexttopatch

 

That's odd...  Could you please upload unpatched AirPortAtheros40.kext from El Capitan so that I can help patch it for you?

For AR9565? I didn't find it.

 

only V14 for both AR9485 and AR9565 so far...

OK,My Bluetooth remains always on and switch off icon is grayed.do you have the same problem ? Also, whether the clover kext2patch to airport-atheros40.kext ,Inteliofamily.kext is only needed ,no additional kexts to put in anywhere (No modified kexts ,excepts vanilla that already comes with os)

and what's about speed of WiFi in 2.5 GHZ.Thanks for reply.

Yes, the behavior of bluetooth is this ( In the developer's publication, this behavior is explained )

You do not need anything else, just KextToPatch

 

If the card was not recognized, manually load the kext, redo the caches and reboot

 

sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AirPortAtheros40.kext

sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel

sudo kextcache -system-caches

 

reboot

 

I was not able to test at speeds above 5Mb / s, the limit of my DSL

V15 doesn't have disconnect problem but there is speed drop problem. Sometimes happen speed drops and the connection is cut off instantly. After that it comes back. So still V13 is more stable than v15 for me.

Agreed, same for me

This is my case. Using V14 with this kexttopatch, uploaded the bluetooth firmware, everything seems to run OK in Sierra 10.12.4.

Thank you!!

Hello! How i can use the AR9485(TPlink TL-WN781ND2) PCIE card with mac os 10.10?

Thx in advanced.

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english, bat this language is not my nacional.

 

I don't have 10.10 installed.  You can upload the unpatched AirPortAtheros40.kext from 10.10 and I can try to patch it for you...

Have any chances to run QCA9377([168c:0042]) under 10.12.5 using this drivers?

 

I don't think it would work because the driver is for ath9k, not for ath10k...
