I been using a BCM43224 (pci14e4,4353) Apple Airport card with Catalina and Big Sur just fine, but I can't get it to work in Monterey.
Normally the only thing needed for Catalina is the correct SMBIOS or manually patching IO80211Family so it loads the driver no matter which SMBIOS is used, and for Big Sur using a patched IO80211Family does the trick.
But with Monterey I can't get it to work. Tried all the usual things, booting with Mojave's IO80211 works in Big Sur but it instantly reboots the machine once it loads when used in Monterey.
I guess it's time to upgrade but it would be cool if this card can work in yet another generation of macOS. It's a real Apple card I pulled from an old MacBook Air 11'' (2012).
Only the wifi part isn't working, bluetooth is working out of the box as it should without any kexts or patches needed.
I also tried AirportBrcmFixup and spoofing some device id's. Nothing made the wifi work. Hope any of you had more luck!
