# ⚠️⚠️⚠️ WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️

<summary>💻 My Hardware</summary>
 
These are the Hardware component I use. But this OpenCore configuation should still work with your device, even if the components are not equal.

Check the model of your WiFi & Bluetooth card. Intel cards should be compatible with itlwm (or AirportItlwm). If your card is from another manufacturer, please check if your card supports macOS. macOS Sonoma no longer supports Broadcom Wifi cards.

<summary>🛜 Intel Wi-Fi Patch for macOS Sequoia </summary>

**Intel Wi-Fi does not work on macOS Sequoia unless you install this patch.**

> Credit to [ResQre](https://github.com/ResQre) for these instructions

What you need
- Intel Wi-Fi Card (of course)
- Hackintool (for device path) + your favorite plist editor (in my case, OCAuxiliaryTools)
- [OpenCore Legacy Patcher](https://github.com/dortania/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher)

1. Open Hackintool and go to the Pcie menu, look for where it says "Intel Wireless" (in my case, Wireless 8260).

2. Open a .plist editor (in this case, we'll use OCAuxiliaryTools), add the device path (without #), then add the following device details:

| Key   |      Data Type      |  Value |
|----------|:-------------:|:------:|
| IOName |  String | pci14e4,43a0|
| compatible |    String   | pci106b,117 |
| device-id | Data | A0430000 |
| device_type | String | Network Controller |
| model | String | BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter |
| name | String | pci14e4,43a0 |
| pci-aspm-default | Number | 0 |
| subsystem-id | Data | 17010000 |
| subsystem-vendor-id | Data | 6B100000 |
| vendor-xt | Data | E4140000 |

It should look like this:

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2a7b1d5b-29a7-4740-aaba-9ce1eb661f3f)

Press save and reboot (no need for setting the kext up since it's already presented inside of the efi.)

3. If you done the setup correctly, you should be able to install the OCLP root patch.

4. Install the patch, then you can remove the spoof id (or add the # instead) and Intel Wi-Fi should work without the need for Heliport.
