Installed a compatible card, ran v2.2.3 of CAT on OS X 10.11.3. All reports says Handoff should be working. All settings are correct on iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro. No bueno with handoff. Let me know if you need anything more than whats below.

Just an update... magically from the train while tethered Handoff began working. Perhaps it's environmental issues with my home network. Will test from the office network and provide additional feedback.

Hey, I had the same issue as you. Handoff started working when I opened up the Airdrop menu. I noticed you also don't have wireless a/c supported. Let me know if you get that working!

@mhedhliGVIT It sometimes takes some time to sync the data that you now got a Continuity compatible device to the server.

@ErikUri The AirPort card from the 2012 MacBook Pro does not support 802.11ac. It is therefore not possible to enable it.
