teargas666 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Hi guys, yesterday I installed high Sierra 10.13 on my eMachines E730G. I’ve installed Fakepciid for my Broadcomm LAN Card (together with Kext for the card). Unfortunately it’s not working... when I connect cable my laptop it doesn’t recognize connection. I’ve also tried a lot of Kext for my Atheros (ARB597) WiFi card and its not working. I don’t know what can I do more to connect to internet. I use latest version of clover.

chris1111 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) Remove previous install kext Try to using this kext in /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/Other/BCM5722D.kext reboot the laptop and see if the network is connect ? Use DCPIManager to view all device in PCI List /Infos on your machine Post a picture of PCI List like the below pics BCM5722D.kext.zip DPCIManager.zip Edited April 21, 2019 by chris1111 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teargas666 Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 Dear All, please find enclosed screenshoot. 21 hours ago, Hervé said: Have you identified your exact model of Broadcom LAN card or, at least, its PCI id? Re: wireless, Atheros AR5B597 does not exist. If you meant AR5B97 (PCI id 168c:002e), it's fully supported with the default Atheros kext provided in macOS up to High Sierra but it just won't work OOB; you need to apply a DSDT/ACPI patch or patch Atheros40 kext to inject the card's id in the Info.plist file. See here for full details. DSDT/ACPI patch is preferable. Nope, I've just install kexts and try to connect to WiFi. Unfotunateli its not clear for me how to patch the DSDT. Could you help me with this issue? I've attached dropped DSDT. DSDT.aml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's your modified DSDT; you could have managed yourself, it already contained an entry for a wireless card... DSDT.aml.zip Re: LAN, it's a Broadcom-based NetLink BCM57780 GigEthernet card; 'should be supported OOB according to this old thread. 'haven't checked, I let you do it. Thank you.

If so, it goes into Clover/ACPI/patched of your EFI folder, where I found it... Yes, I'm using Clover. Thank you for your help. I will check if it will work with my hackintosh.

teargas666 Posted April 24, 2019 Author Share Posted April 24, 2019 I do everything mentioned in your post, but its still not working... I think to reinstall the system and try it once more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teargas666 Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) So, if I will reinstall the whole system, I need just to put correct SMBIOS via Clover Configurator app and inject previously attached DSDT? After that WiFi should work OOB? Edited April 25, 2019 by teargas666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teargas666 Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Okay, after reinstallation of the system, WiFi is working perfectly. I've another problem with the system. It is not so fast as it should be... When I have opened 3-4 tabs on Safari and Mail, I have a lots of lags when I type in Safari. It may be caused due to lack of some patches in DSDT or my computer have no good configuration for High Sierra? 2 GB Ram Intel i5-430M HD5470 Maybe there is some problems with power management?
