Rammjet Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 In Terminal, type: ioreg -l | grep "pci14e4" The 4 characters after "pci14e4," is the device id for the Broadcom device. If nothing shows up, then the device is not Broadcom or the device is not recognized by OSX. You can get the vendor and device id from Windows: Windows -> Device Manager -> Network Adapters -> broadcom device -> Properties -> Details tab The vendor id is the 4 characters after VEN_ and the device id is the 4 characters after DEV_ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34545-how-can-i-find-device-id/#findComment-244994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
