AC 9462 Not detecting Wifi about itlwm

[lgariv]

you need to set your ssid and password prior to compiling / set you ssid to "ssdt" (without quotes) and password to "zxyssdt112233" (without quotes).
then, load the kext and give it a minute to do it's magic

[williambj1]

You can't disable encryption by simply setting the password into an empty string.

But setting the password to anything automatically changes the security level to WPA2 PSK, which as far as I read, is not supported yet right?

Anyhow, I've tried compiling with setting the ssid name and password as you mentioned, loaded the kext, gave it 10 minutes on boot and nothing. Again the network doesn't connect.

SSID Name : ssdt
Password: zxyssdt112233
Security : WPA2 PSK (Encryption cannot be set to any other setting when ANY password is set, on two different devices I tried)

Logs for kexts are same as in original post.

device product id?

[zxystd]

yesterday i have merge a pr that add some pids which are not tested.

[Arrnav]

Well I wasn't sure which ID you needed exactly, so here's a screenshot of the Hardware ID in windows device manager, I can provide anything else if needed.

If the above is wrong, where do I exactly find this ID? @zxystd

[zxystd]

Yes, 0xA370 is your device productid, this id is same as AC9560... but My friend has test it and it works well, sometimes stuck when loading firmware, maybe you can try about 3~5 times and see whether it would work? I will mark it as a bug and will fix it(I think it is a irq issue).

I just tried your latest code and rebuilt and installed the kext and still does not work.

[Arrnav]

1. How does the kext scan for wifi network? Does it keep scanning after boot? For example, if I disable hotspot and enable after 30 mins, will the laptop still try to connect again?

2. I have working bluetooth using IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext and IntelBluetoothInjection.kext for the same card. Can this cause any interference in the working of itlwm?

3. Just to confirm again, my mobile hotspot gets automatically set to WPA2 PSK if setting password as per the kext. Will this create an issue?

[zxystd]

1.If the card is init done, it will enter a scheduling scan work, scan for every channel until find the target ssid and connect it.
2.Not too much relation between these things.
3.WPA2 is fully support now, also including WPA2-PSK WiFi.

[Arrnav]

How do I know whether the card init is done properly and it's scanning? @zxystd

[lgariv]

How do I know whether the card init is done properly and it's scanning? @zxystd

By reading logs (ssid should be in there)

[zxystd]

log show --last boot|grep scan_result

and you will see the surrounding wifis if the scan works.

[zxystd]

also, if you can see a network interface is created by driver, that means everything init done.

[Arrnav]

I'll check the scanning log and let you know.

Is there any way to install this kext just on the OpenCore EFI folder? (I want to preserve native Mac /L/E/ by injecting all third party kexts in OpenCore)

Everytime I install itlwm.kext to OpenCore/EFI/ instead of /L/E/, I get a "realpath not found in /L/E/" error in the results of "log show --last boot | grep itlwm" in terminal, maybe that interferes with kext loading too.

When I install the kext in /L/E, the error is gone in next log.

Regardless of where it's installed now, still doesn't detect hotspot. @zxystd

[zxystd]

Of course yes, just need some minor of change to do because of the OSKextRequestResource api can not work in bootloader more(maybe).

大佬您好，上面这位@Arrnav 国外老哥使用的是我的OC项目（之前跟他交流过），跟我是同一机型，使用AC9462。

而我在我的机器上面测试，也是跟他一样的问题，驱动已加载（在关于本机-系统报告-功能扩展里已经看到itlwm），就是在设置的网络里，没有除了有线以太网和蓝牙PAN之外的东西，无法上网。使用您上面提供的scan_result代码运行之后没有任何信息提供。

而我注意到在Hackintool里，PCIe一栏下Wireless-AC 9462显示的是已禁用，系统报告的PCI一栏也没有这一网卡的信息，我就在想是否是我的OC配置有问题？

我也尝试过在Config.plist注入网卡的pci信息，系统报告里的pci是有这一网卡了，但是仍然无法使用您的驱动，hackintool里PCIe下网卡也是显示已禁用。

小弟不太懂，提供我的EFI给大佬参考：https://github.com/tonyleelyy/OpenCore-Hackintosh-Dell-G3-3579/releases/tag/v1.2

log文件也一并提供：test.log

希望对大佬的研究有帮助。祝成功！

大佬不好意思，我已经确定是我的EFI存在问题，现已修复。

衷心感谢您的付出和努力！

Can you tell me what the problem is brother?

Did you manage to fix the wifi?

[Arrnav]

大佬不好意思，我已经确定是我的EFI存在问题，现已修复。

衷心感谢您的付出和努力！

Did you upload the new fixed EFI to your OpenCore GitHub Release?

Yes, with the newest version, we can use this kext successfully!

I think it is something about the injection of devices in my older ACPI files (the older version is build by my friend CerteKim)

BTW, If the problem solved, please close this issue.
