You have to buy a real Apple BCM94322MC, not a 3rd party one. Read #26.

About to take the plunge on Mojave and wanted to check compatibility of my Wifi card first.

I bought a "Bcm94360cd" card from OSX Wifi (https://www.osxwifi.com/product/app...for-mac-pro-2009-41-and-mac-pro-2010-2012-51/ )

Will this work with Mojave? And in any case, is there a better card available that I should consider upgrading to? Thanks in advance!

You could assemble your own for a fraction of the cost and with BT4.2 using BCM943602CDP - read more here ... I will be doing the same.

@tsialex So, it does not matter which cable goes to which connector, for example, shall cable-1 go to connector J1 and cable 2/3 to J2?

By the book, matters, but people found that we get best reception testing.

Since everyone has a different config and different position relative to the Wi-Fi router, the best is to test. I had best reception with 1-3 when I was testing with the Mac Pro over my table, when I changed it to under, I had to change to 1-2.

Hi All!
In my MP 4.1 --> 5.1 i have Atheros AR5BXB112 card. Of course it stop working when i installed Mojave.
Then i found a solution to add kext, and the card works as he did it before in Sierra, HS, etc.
But i also have Macbook Pro 4.1 (Early 2008), and i found out (through a command in the terminal) there BRCM43224 wireless card in it (note - maybe it is important - not BCM, bur bRcm).
I thought if this card could work under Mojave natively i will swap the cards, and put Atheros in MBP as i use Yosemity in that machine.
I tried to discover by myself is BRCM43224 work under Mohave, but with no success.
I appreciate your responses!

Use an airport card from a Mac model that natively supports Mojave.

Did I say something else?
I want to know if the BRCM43224 works natively ander Mohave or no?
Later i will order the card from a more modern Mac, but why not to use this card that in my hand right now?
