Hello!

Config.plist is attached.
Bought this Wi-Fi PCIe card a while ago: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07ZV2CJL2?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

I understand that this is an Intel chipset (Additionnally, Windows Device Manager AND Hackintool both detect the card as PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x2)/Pci(0x0,0x2)/Pci(0x6,0x0)/Pci(0x0,0x0) MT7922 802.11ax PCI Express MEDIATEK Corp. (however, manufacturer does state it's Intel chipset).

So the card is found by Hackintool, and also the OpenCore debug log:

21:554 00:032 OC: Prelinked injection itlwm.kext (itlwm.kext) - Success
21:584 00:030 OC: Prelinked injection itlwm.kext v2.3.0

However, the itlwm.kext Kext (latest: https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm ) doesn't appear to load, as it's not listed by kextstat (I understand itlwm.kext with HeliPort.app should be the way to go for Sequoia).

Heliport.app just says "itlwm is not running" (which would make sense if the kext doesn't load).

I've tried clearing network settings and removing the other networks kextx but no go. I've also tried with SecureBootModel=Disabled

....what now? :(
I was hoping to output the verbose boot process to a file but how ?

Thank you :)

@GameX the issue is it isn’t an intel card as both windows and hackintool report, it’s a mediatek chipset that isn’t supported. The description on Amazon is a bit deceptive
