32bit Mediatek usb wifi driver not working on Catalina.

With time, Mojave has became very old with increasing compatability issues that's why I updated to Catalina where I got all iservices working but the wifi driver of my tenda W311mi has stopped working on Catalina as Catalina has discontinued support for 32 bit apps. I tried installing wireless raillink utility by chris111 but it is very bad. It connects to my phone for few minutes and automatically disconnects.
I tried restarting but the problem is consistent.

I really appreciate any help...

High Sierra to Mojave Upgrade Problems

Backstory: I had a perfectly functional Sierra system set up back in 2018 and just recently, I wanted to update it to Catalina but decided to go slow. So naturally.. I followed the steps mentioned in Sierra to High Sierra successfully. It gave me a lot of hope that it's not actually all that difficult.. Until I hit the first road block: For some odd reason, Clover didn't pick up the "Boot macOS Install" drive mentioned in step 5 of the "Update Directly to macOS Mojave" link. So I...

I'm trying Catalina 10.15.7 using latest Lilu 1.5.1 + WhateverGreen 1.4.8 with radpg=15.
My GPU is Sapphire 7750 Ultimate 1GB (fanless) and I'm getting the following behaviour: HDMI works, DVI doesn't work (black screen / signal out of range), untested DP.

Boot flag -raddvi doesn't help to get DVI working neither, but according to WEG logging it's supposedly correcting the DVI digital transmitter for good.

Hi there!

I'm on 11.6.1 and since then no updates pop up. Tried enabling auto updates in System Preferences to no avail. Also tried command line but the update doesn't appear.

Strangely enough Safari 15.3 update appeared and installed correctly yesterday, but no way to update to 11.6.3.

Cloning Big Sur possible?

So, I managed to install Big Sur onto a 250 GB SATA 2.5" SSD just to see if I could do it. I'm surprised at how easy it was. But now, I want to install onto a 2 TB SSD m.2 PCIe card and I've discovered that Carbon Copy Cloner doesn't work. Is there a solution for cloning? I'd rather just clone the test install drive to the larger m.2 if I can.

Increase WD SN750 NVMe read/write performance?

Was wondering if anyone had experience with NVMes/SSDs under Catalina. I'd been getting around 3000MB/s read & write on the Aja System Test with a 1TB WD SN850 fitted in my new Gigabyte B550 Vision D board, but not the 7000-5300MB/s read-write rates that the drive had been touted to achieve. Was wondering what settings for improving performance (if any) that I could do.

Hello. I have been trying to install mojave onto my machine. It appeared that it installed without issue other than pink horizontal lines across the screen while installing on the apple logo screen.
When I try to follow the next step of booting from usb and then choosing the new mojave install, nothing happens. totally frozen on Apple logo screen. So I never get to the step of running multibeast.
Can anyone help in finding what I am doing incorrectly?
Thank you.
