everart Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I don't know what is happening but if my AppleHDA or IOBluetoothFamily is load my system crash, like freezing!! I will upload my config.plist and IOReg if somebody want to take a look.

Dexter61 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 It shouldn't make differences between the patched kext and the kextstopatch method but you're welcome to try it. That's interesting... Everything is working fine and more stable on my system (with v16). I'm not sure what might cause internet problems on your system. Does your system still encounter the freezing problem with v16? You can downloaded the unpatched AirPortAtheros40.kext from the following link. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312045-atheros-wireless-driver-os-x-101112-for-unsupported-cards/?p=2399901 I set the system up all over again. I have not experienced frozen problem and breaking problem with v16 for the time being in short term. I will report back after using it for a long time. Thank you for your support. Update 1: There is no freezing but it still breaks at regular and it does not improve unless I turn WiFi off and on. Is there anyone who has used 9462 and has never had a breakup problem? If so, what version is it using?

everart Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 oops... Did your system freeze before it connected to internet or after it connected to internet? Not sure about the USB mouse... I don't think you need to do anything with the clover plist while using the patched kext... http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312045-atheros-wireless-driver-os-x-101112-for-unsupported-cards/?p=2450121 My system freeze few seconds or minutes after I login! after freeze I can hear my processor cooler run more fast like full speed, then I need to reset.

JennyDavid Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 You're AMAZING Chunnann The AR946X.v16.kext works great for me in 10.12.5 but the internet speed seems so slow (like it's being capped).

The best version of the kext, in my opinion. Checked on a 100/100 MB internet connection.

chunnann Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Here are the AR9485.v16. & AR9565.v16. (only for macOS Sierra).

jalavoui Posted July 9, 2017 Author Share Posted July 9, 2017 because this is a work in progress and needs lots of testing maybe use KextsToPatch only for countrycode ? this will help 4 ppl cause they only need to replace with latest version and report back 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312045-atheros-wireless-driver-os-x-101112-for-unsupported-cards/page/14/#findComment-2459128 Share on other sites More sharing options...
qeeqez Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Here are the AR9485.v16. & AR9565.v16. (only for macOS Sierra). It's a patched version so please don't use it with KextsToPatch because it might not work... Nice work! AR9485 is more stable than v14. Have no disconnects. Some issue: on the low connection (2 or 1 strips of wifi sign) wifi is showing up in the list of available connections but can't connect (on v14 all except full wifi strength won't even showing up), but if it was already connected on full strength - it'll be working on low too (sometimes). 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312045-atheros-wireless-driver-os-x-101112-for-unsupported-cards/page/14/#findComment-2459150 Share on other sites More sharing options...

everart Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Sorry about my noob question but if I use config.plist/kext to patch I don't need to install the kext right?

Dexter61 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 With V16 AR9462 works pretty well. I have never experienced a breakup problem for over 24 hours. But very rarely, I have a problem with speeding down. Thanks for everything. @chunnann 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/312045-atheros-wireless-driver-os-x-101112-for-unsupported-cards/page/14/#findComment-2463598 Share on other sites More sharing options...

luck_gh0st Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Still working here. Not quite as fast as I'd like on the speed test. Does this see 5Ghz for anyone who has it? Mine doesn't but it's not a big deal.

Dexter61 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Hi again, I use AR9462 with V16 Kext, but there is still a breakdown problem in long usage. Sometimes I do not have internet when I turn on my computer and I need to restart it to come back. If you prefer, I can share my config file and my patched DSDT file. It will be really perfect if it resolves in this problem.
