cellstorm Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 hi, I have bought a dw1550 for my 6430s. fits in - original intel card also has a plug for the third, gray cable, dw1550 does only have two read about that is something auxiliary.. hope it works nevertheless. when booting from my linux stick as well as DPCI manager show the card: ven dev subven subdev 14e4 43b1 1028 0017 So I assume I installed it right. I tried to activate it with the SSDT method of toleda (putting ssdt_arpt.aml as SSDT-1.aml in /EFI/EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched, having a SSDT.aml already there), but it does not show up. Must I do sth. else? Is there a log of what happened? Should I bother trying the other methods or am I doing sth. totally wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister3000 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 @cellstorm were you successful at getting the DW1550 to work ? @Bronxteck Also, my understanding is that the DW1510 works without any patches. any reason to go through the trouble of patching with the DW1550 ? (other than N speeds on the DW1510 vs AC speeds on the DW1550) thanks.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Jake Lo Posted October 24, 2016 Moderators Share Posted October 24, 2016 DW1550 is a combo card with Bluetooth and Wifi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted October 24, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 24, 2016 Like Jake mentions DW1510 Does not have integrated BT but some laptops already have one integrated so you might not actually need the BT part. thats the case on my HP. I am not using the DW1550 BT module. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
