How to Fix REALTEK RTL8125B not working on MEG Z490 UNIFY
Network issues on Hackintosh or unsupported Macs are typically caused by chipset incompatibility, incorrect kext pairing, or corrupted network preferences.
Quick Fix Steps
- Identify your network chipset: Open System Information > Wi-Fi/Bluetooth or use Hackintool.
- Use the correct kext: For Intel Wi-Fi use AirportItlwm, for Broadcom use BrcmPatchRAM, for Ethernet use IntelMausi or RealtekRTL8111.
- Reset network preferences: Delete /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist and reboot.
- Check privacy settings: System Settings > Privacy > Location Services must be enabled.
Verification
- Wi-Fi connects after reboot.
- Bluetooth pairs and stays connected.
- Location Services works in Maps.

Original Question: "REALTEK RTL8125B not working on MEG Z490 UNIFY"
With Catalina and Big Sur the installer is not fully detecting this card and initializing it. Under network it shows RTL8125B, but no IP or anything. It looks like some people may have gotten it to work, but I'm not sure what they did? I have the correlating Kext for it and added to the OPENCORE config.
Any suggestions or advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks!
