Hello everyone! Last week I received my Broadcom BCM94352Z (model DW1560) from Newegg, installed it into my Dell Inspiron 5558, and I can't get it to work in macOS 10.13.5. I thought that I might have received a knockoff, so I tried it in Linux Mint, and it recognized it as a BCM4352 and worked perfectly! I've tried almost everything I could find online and nothing is working (see below). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Methods I Tried:

FakePCIID, FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi, BrcmPatchRAM2, BrcmFirmwareRepo

I've also used AirportBrcmFixup and BrcmFirmwareData when injecting with Clover

Laptop Specifications (Closest to MacBookAir 17,1, using SMBIOS for MacBook Pro 12,1)

Intel Core i5-5250U

Intel HD 6000 Graphics

8GB RAM

1 TB Hard Drive

ALC3234 (apparently equivalent to ALC255 according to the net)

Originally Intel Wireless, now BCM94352Z

1. You just need 1 BT firmware uploader: BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext on /L/E/ or BrcmFirmwareData.kext on clover. pick one, never both

2. Try to add these on clover config.plist KextsToPatch
