By default - WIFI is working alright with DW1820A. But I've troubles getting BT to work
So here are summary of options and outcomes:

  • default KEXT and config.plist - WIfi working no BT
  • Kext moved from folder to Kext/Others - No Wifi No BT
  • Modified clover config to: contain this part with PCI root and my PCI ID (in my case pci13e4,43e3 (not 4353!) - Wifi working no BT
  • Modified config + kexts - no WIFI no BT
    My "addition" to the clover config (taken from 1.3 release on this git with slight change in device ID)
    PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1c,0x01)/Pci(0x0)

I'm very new to mackintosh in general, hope I did not missed anything.

Thanks

I recommend using the default intel wireless card now since it's now supported.

I've installed stock Intel WIFI. But I needed to add itlwm.kext in order to run heliport. Can you please add this to git?
Also this is not a full solution - what can I do in order to make that DW1820A work?
Are there any downsides when running heliport vs stock wifi controller. In past when using similar thing with Realtek I was having a lot of issues due to the app compatibility with fake LAN network.

Thanks, I added it. I thought I had included it.

I'm not going to support third party wifi cards (too much work) and stick with the intel one, since it works fine.
