Hello!

I have Mac pro 2,1 and yosemite, i cant get work BCM4311 and BCM4312 on this machine, what cards i can buy to get work wifi and maybe Bluetooth "from the box" without any kext modification (of course i can flash it once :) )

Also it will be very nice if the card can be supported by 10.7.* Mac OS, if need go back



BCM4311 in windows now like:
pci\ven_14e4&dev_4311&subsys_0087106B&rev_02

It's supported by yosemite? Maybe someone can help with activating this

It seems nobody cares about b/g card support in Yosemite.
Especially as MP wasn't ever offered with one.
Feel free to search the forum for compatible cards. There is plenty of info what to get and what not.

I used the 3 antennae wifi N card from a dead macbook pro 3,1 in my macpro 1,1.

Your 2,1 can also use the same card, they work perfectly in 10.7 and up.
