Hi guys, So for quite some time I am having problems with my WiFi connection. I am using a BCM94360NG M.2 card in a Mini-ITX GigaByte mainboard. In general the WiFi is working just fine and fast - but every couple of minutes the WiFi kinda "gets stuck". When this happens, I can't even ping google.com, everything internet related comes pretty much to a halt. The browser isn't showing an error page, but rather loads indefinitely.. Sometimes disabling and re-enabling WiFi helps, sometimes it doesn't. I even already bought another router which I now use as an WiFi access point - no changes to the problem. My machine is dual-boot: in Win10 the WiFi is just fine, full speed, ... So can't be a general hardware problem either. Can anyone help? This is really really annoying, as I also use the hack for work and getting thrown out of every google meet call like every 10-15mins is just exhausting. --- I am running OpenCore (how do I find out the exact version?) Here are my kexts: [link] [comments] |
