    I am really grateful for your quick responses and I am really sorry for pursuing this so late after initially opening my request.

    Here is the paste url I got https://paste.libreelec.tv/sterling-jackass.log

    I found references of my chip ID 4331 and of wl tainting kernel somewhere though I cannot make sense of those messages, here are the copied lines.

    Code

    I see, I’m currently on 11.0.6 and can confirm it didn’t work on that version. Interestingly the Bluetooth does work and if I’m not mistaken both WiFi and Bluetooth are from the same chip. I have left the device to update to 12.0.1 and will check if it works later today.

    I've seen another report of not being able to boot the LE12 installer (where LE11 worked). The issue was just in the installer though, so once LE11 has installed to the internal drive you should be able to update to LE12.

    The Generic image should have the brcmfmac driver for the card included, but it might be missing the firmware, which can be easily solved: https://wiki.libreelec.tv/how-to/add-firmware

    I do not know what was going on with my life that caused me to not pursue this fix. I will pursue it soon tomorrow and report back on success or failure. Thank you for the support chewitt.

    I am new here and I have installed libreelec 11.06 on Mac Mini Late 2012. It runs great but doesn’t detect WiFi.

    This device has a BCM4331 WiFi chip and I got WiFi working on Manjaro Linux with enabled AUR, flatpack, Snap after using my Ethernet port temporarily and going to terminal and installing linux61-headers and broadcom-wl-dkms

    Is it possible for me to install these drivers so I can use WiFi on libreelec? Any Linux terminal, access to AUR or other repositories?

    Note: The reason I didn’t install the latest version of libreelec is because it wouldn’t boot on my Mac Mini.
