compatible - pci14e4,43a0 - String

[johnwalked]

I tried all methods bro but no luck, what am I missing?

I've realized this card is not supported at all

Edited November 13, 2023 by johnwalked

[MaLd0n]

Ye. Some cards don't have support under macOS.

[johnwalked]

I've found this from an old laptop
and I can see it's listed in Inventory of supported cards, can we make this work?

Atheros lose support on new system

[johnwalked]
