https://github.com/OpenIntelWireless/itlwm Mine wifi worked using this kext. I don't know which wifi card is in my laptop because I'm not very experienced computer user but you can definitely try this kext. The version that I'm using right now of this kext is v2.1.0 stable. Let me know if you want further information.

@shahzaib4076 I have downloaded the same kext and the same version, but it seems that it is not working. The kext show as registered when booted into the hackintosh (using Hackintool). But the wireless network adapter cannot be found.

@shahzaib4076 I have the e6430 model. Neither of the kexts worked for me.

@THE-SIMPLE-MARK do these following steps: -> Delete all your content in OC folder in EFI folder in EFI partition. -> Download and unzip this in your same OC folder https://github.com/sunabozu/dell-e6430-big-sur-opencore -> Download this kext for BigSur because probably you are using this version of BigSur https://github.com/win1010525/Airportitlwm-kext/releases/tag/1.2-stable -> Download and install python from here https://www.python.org/downloads/ -> Download and unzip this opensource tool https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree -> Run ProperTree.command from the unzipped folder. (A GUI window will open) -> Click on File > Open in the top menu -> Navigate to the Config.plist file present in OC folder of your EFI partition. (The file will be opened in GUI window) -> Now go to File > OC Snapshot in the top menu -> Navigate to your OC folder of your EFI -> Now just save the Config.plist file by goiing to File > Save or (Command + S). -> Restart your your laptop and it should now work

I don't want to copy this EFI though. I have already built my own as a project. Also the kext you attached causes a kernel panic.

@THE-SIMPLE-MARK Then try copying the wifi kext /System/Extensions folder at your own risk. -> sudo cp /path/to/kext /Library/Extensions. -> Allow in setting if it prompts to allow somw changes or something like that after coping. -> Restart your laptop
