Vinicius P. Miranda Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hello guys. Unfortunately I can not find anything to remove my doubts on this issue, for this I am creating a new topic. I have some problems in my hack because I do not have any WIFI and bluetooth adapter. So I'm planning to buy the adapters, I will need them to use the Apple Magic Trackpad 2. I would like these adapters work like the Apple natives, and preferably I did not need special kexts or DSDT editing. Can yours help me find a site that shows the adapters I can buy that work that way for Sierra 10.12.2? If yours do not have any websites, do you know some adapters? If you can write a list of some good ones, because I live in Brazil and here it will be difficult to find them. I need to look for more than one for wifi and more than one for bluetooth. Thanks guys.

For a desktop, you can buy an Apple BCM43602CS and an adapter made for it. I'm using it in one of my hack, native bluetooth and native wifi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinicius P. Miranda Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Indeed, Apple's own Broadcom-based 802.11n or 802.11ac cards work perfectly and OOB with an adaptor. For instance: BCM94360CD (802.11a/b/g/n/ac, 2.4/5GHz, up to 1.3Gbps + BT4.0) BCM94331CD (802.11a/b/g/n, 2.4/5GHz, up to 450Mbps + BT4.0) There are other Apple variants like the model mentioned by vusun123. Cards and adapters are usually available from well known on-line vendor sites or auction sites. I use a BCM94360CD with a mini-PCIe adapter in my laptops and everything (wifi + BT) works as in a real Mac. You may also opt for a more traditional mini-PCIe to PCIe adapter board in which you can fit a regular mini-PCIe wireless or combo wireless/BT card that's compatible with OS X/macOS (Atheros or Broadcom based). Depending on the mini-PCIe card used, you may or may not require kext or kext patching for wireless and/or BT. I saw that Macs are already using bluetooth 4.2. Do you know any cards already have wifi and bluetooth 4.2 native? I find these cards only in China. So I will choose to buy the best I can.
