I have this old '13 air. It’s outta support, so I run fedora instead of macos. It has BCM4630 for wireless (🖕 Broadcom), which had me manually install a rather unreliable driver to ever get it working. Yesterday I updated, and it can’t find any networks anymore.
Instead of messing with broadcom drivers anymore, I’d rather replace the hardware with something better. Has anyone here tried this? Know what will work both in linux and macos, if I were to pass this thing to someone else later?
Initially installing them wasn’t a problem anyway, but rather the driver breaking. It feels good to trust the laptop a again.
Huh that’s strange because I’ve never had the driver break on me.
But I guess it means you’ve successfully installed the new card? Awesome
