Can you include intel wifi kext?

Open metro2450 opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

First of all please accept my thanks for providing us a well-presented opencore config and I just installed Catalina successfully.

Just have an idea if you can include the intel wireless driver then it can be a more user-friendly opencore config as a "generic" T460 usually comes with an Intel WiFi card installed.

the intel WiFi Driver is here https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm and I have installed and tested working on my T460

Best Regards

I'd be interested to see if Hand-off and continuity work with that kext. Can you confirm?

I don’t think so. Just pure WiFi and Bluetooth support (Bluetooth support via another kext).

So combined they should provide the relevant environment for Hand-off and Continuity to work. Worth testing I think at some point.

I don’t know if that will happen. As their project introduction stated, they are not building the driver on top of Apple’s native WiFi framework, which might be “ the relevant environment for hand-off” needed.

I'm glad I ordered my DW1560 then :)

I have been trying for two days to get the wifi to work with intel kexts, it works in the setup phase but when I boot to macOS it doesn't work (although Bluetooth does work), can u guys help me with this issue? do u guys have a working efi folder for intel wifi cards? my card is intel 7265NGW ( I tested this card on Catalina on my specture x360 and it works btw) @metro2450 @aptonline @MSzturc
