Are there any new kext patches for the stock wifi card to work on big sur? The instruction is confusing me a little since english isn't my first language. The same question is reffering to the brightness control. I have a Mid 2011 iMac with a gtx 860m flashed for mac os , custom ssd everything else is stock mid 2011 iMac parts

Use this fork for you iMac:

https://github.com/Ausdauersportler/big-sur-micropatcher

possibly the latest dev version.

Follow the docs ignoring opencore and use the --nikey22 flag with the patcher as mentioned in the readme.

The stock wifi card will be supported, but no HandOff or Continuity ...

Brightness Control will be supplied by the vBIOS, all necessary patches for the iMac 2011 are included and selected automatically.
