I've followed step by step this and some other guides to make it work, and as soon as I inject IOSkywalkFamily.kext then my system goes to a boot loop. Any clue? Attached you can find my config.plist

Update IOSkywalkFamily to 1.1.0 version.

Hey @MaLd0n I recently installed a Bradcom Wifi in my laptop and followed these steps in order to activate it.
Managed to make both wifi, bluetooth and airdrop work, but as my graphics card is disabled, I have a WavLink docking hub for HDMI, and it's app stopped working as soon I deactivated SIP (csr-active-config = 03080000) (tested it step by step, and it only stopped working after this one).
Also tried deactivating the AMFI using amfi_get_out_of_my_face=1 instead of amfi=0x80, but no success.

Do you have any ideia why this specific app stopped working, and how could I make it work without reverting those steps and losing my wifi?

I have a 10th gen core i5, 32gb RAM and a deactivated GTX1650Ti (Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3i)

Thanks.

Edit.: Also noticed the app runs flawlessly until the USB dock is connected. Then the app closes, and happens everytime I try to open it again.

I never test on mobiles

I installed SONOMA Olarila14.4.1. Great installer, everything went smoothly. Most importantly, SFP ethernet cards work on it without any problems (I tested Intel XXV710-DA2 and Mellanox Connectx-4, which I have). These cards are natively supported in Sonoma. I also have a Fenvi T919 on which I wanted to run a Wi-Fi connection. But running Fenvi is not possible with working fiber cards. The presence of the IOSkywalkFamily kexts, along with other settings necessary for Fenvi to run, causes the Intel XXV710-DA2 and Mellanox Connectx-4 (no matter which is present, the result is the same), to prevent ethernet cards from being properly installed in the system. It appears that IOSkywalkFamily kexts are incompatible with Apple's built-in drivers for other network cards natively supported by apple. After a few or a dozen or so minutes, this leads to a system crash. Any tips?
