2.5Gbit Ethernet (Intel I225-V) Don't work

[bengyuan25]

Hi, can you help me
Use 1.5v EFI package

[SchmockLord]

Sure that it is not working? Plugged in a cable yet?

Mine is red too as long as not cable is attached.

Thank you for reply
Yes, win10 is normal
I use the asus z490a.

[SchmockLord]

I see. Then probably you have to change the PCI-device path of your I225-V.

Mine sits here:
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x1)/Pci(0x0, 0x0)

This is how it looks like in ioregistryExplorer:

And then you have to edit the PCI-path in this section (DeviceProperties-Add):

	<key>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1C,0x1)/Pci(0x0, 0x0)</key>
	<dict>
		<key>device-id</key>
		<data>8hUAAA==</data>
	</dict>

[Scope666]

I'm on the Asus ROG Strix Z490-E and I had to edit mine:

[bengyuan25]

Wow, thank you so much.
It took me a long time, but it worked and I was happy. thank you @SchmockLord

[SchmockLord]

You are welcome :)

[rursache]

@bengyuan25 how did you fix it in the end? was @SchmockLord's solution working or you tried something else? thanks

[bengyuan25]

@rursache
Yes, according to the scheme he gave, I extracted my PCI path and added it.
My solution:
Using Hackintoll export PCI, open pcidevices plist, find Ethernet path, added to the config. Plist DeviceProperties

[jnickzlim]

@SchmockLord
My motherboard is z490 aorus master.
I am not able to even see the Ethernet option in my network setting.
Would adding the device path work for me?

I tried use hackintool to extract the plist, but when found "ethernet", the device id pattern looks different from yours.
Is this the correct device id that i should be using?

Thank you!

[yihengli]

@jnickzlim
I am having the same issue as my motherboard is z490 aorus ultra. Weirdly, the Ethernet option is completely missing in the networking section.

---

I think I figure this out, the same method can be applied my case as well. This post is very helpful

note that my device id shows f3 15 00 00 but it should be changed to f2 15 00 00, otherwise it won't work.

[jnickzlim]

@yihengli

I tried us IORegistryExplorer to find the "ethernet"
but i checked all the AppleACPIPCI, did not saw any name <"ethernet"> only saw all name in <"pci-bridge">

How do you find it and make it work?

Did you get it to work for you?
Mind to share what you've done?

Thank you

[yihengli]

@jnickzlim
It's working on my end now. I used to have the same thing as you said, where I cannot directly find the item by searching "ethernet" in my IORegistryExplorer.

Then I manually checked each item and found the one as attached:

note that, there was no AppleIntel210 when I first found it.

[jnickzlim]

How do you manually check each?
By trying to add it to config.plist?

[yihengli]

@jnickzlim
No, I just eyeballed each item in the IORegistryExplorer, then I ended up with finding the item "D062@0" with a name as <"ethernet">. Then I followed the instruction in this repo to add them into config.plist.

If you didn't find it, can you try to boot your mb with a windows system and check if the intel 2.5g ethernet port can be detected in the windows device manager? Maybe this will be helpful to determine if there are any hardware issues.

I was dual booting with a windows OS installed on antoher separate SSD, and I installed the windows before installing MacOS. Though I don't think this would matter but just put it here.

[jnickzlim]

I have checked all, couldn’t find any <“ethernet”>, only see <“pci-bridge”>

Will try to boot into window and check it out later

[SchmockLord]

You have to search manually in IORegistry Explorer, without entering anything in the search field. And then just scroll down and look at each device for the description "ethernet". Takes 5min. The search is often misleading in IORegistryExplorer.

[jnickzlim]

I manage to get it working now! So need the FakePCIID.kext & FakePCIID...225-v as well!
Besides that i also need to change the device-id to f2150000 instead of what the IORegisteryExplorer shows...
Thank you for the help guys! Appreciate it! =)

[zaptrem]

I’m dealing with this issue right now as well. However, I found the correct address on Hackintool and added the Pci(0x1C,0x4) entry with device-id = 0xf215 etc, but the ethernet option still isn’t showing up in networking. I have no ethernet for FakePCIID related kexts installed as the OpenCore guide said they were unnecessary. Even Hackintool is now saying that the controller is a I225-LM!

Any idea what the issue could be?

Thanks

How can I edit to make it the same in picture as you described SmordLord . I'm totally new in Hackintosh . Please give me advice . Thank you.

[grinlight]

Where can I get FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext and FakePCIID.kext ? Thanks

Hi, I had the exact same problem with you. I fixed by adding the FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext. I do not know why, but it did the job.

I have the same motherboard Gbyte Z490 AORUS PRO AX but I use an additional Fenvi T919 card for Wifi and Bluetooth, I thought it wasn't possible to get onboard networking working?

[simonhutchings]

Have you tried adding network interface at the bottom? Originally I used intelmaus then tried version on this page. When I hit + it showed me ethernet(0) the 1gb and ethernet(4) the 2.5gb

any updates bro?
i'm still trying. cant find anything good.

I am pretty much the same, did you find anything at all ?
if I put the right PCI path for my board (gigabyte z490 vision g) (0x1c,0x1) I've got a kernel panic. If I put a wrong one, (0x1c,0x4) I can boot and I've got a running Catalina but no ethernet.
By the way in I/Oregister, my device-id is f3150000 instead of f2150000.
Any idea ?

[RetiredDinosaur]

This may be completely unrelated but there is a hardware bug affecting rev.1 and rev.2 of the Intel I225-V 2.5Gb Ethernet chipset. It is affected by packet loss, random disconnects and sometimes it won't show in device list on a cold boot or after a restart. Other times it shows network cable unplugged. A lot of Z490, B550 and X570 boards are affected, see a non-exhaustive list in the reddit post below.

https://www.reddit.com/r/intel/comments/gp2okm/intel_25g_lan_issue_impacted_models/

If your board Intel I225-V chipset has the following code part printed on it, it will be affected, SLN9D or SLNJY.

[Hackintomprocessing]

Didn't know about that, thanks. I haven't checked the code on the board yet but it seems to be working fine on Windows (haven't done a speedcheck).
Some people manage to fix their issue but either I don't understand how they did it or it doesn't work for me.

[Hackintomprocessing]

it's finally working with FakePCIID.kext and the FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext
What I was struggling to do was finding these two kext as I was unable to "build" them and I still don't have a clue on how fakepciid is working as it was not in the open core guide I followed all the way.
So I downloaded the EFI folder attached here https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/success-asus-rog-strix-z490-e-gaming-i9-10900k-opencore.299137/ and just took the two kext I was looking for.
Then updated my config plist accordingly and did that as well :

from that very useful thread :

mine working perfectly right now I forgot what I did coz tried a lot and worked and worked suddenly , but I will send you the efi if needed.

我遇到的问题与我的主板是z490 aorus ultra相同。奇怪的是，在网络部分中完全没有以太网选项。

我想我已经弄清楚了，同样的方法也可以应用于我的案例。这篇文章非常有帮助

请注意，我的设备ID显示为f3 15 00 00，但应将其更改为f2 15 00 00，否则它将无法正常工作。

你好,我的是技嘉的z490i主板应该和你一样，但是都改了，就是不行，他始终现实的是f3 15 00 00；而且有线网卡驱动不了，一个月了，好想哭。。。

Hi, I used google translate to understand what was your question.
I wrote a sum-up there that could help you :

Hope that could help.

[IVCrossway]

Hello, I'm trying to get the I225-V working, I'm trying the various pci root addresses you guys mentioned but I can't get it working (and I need it because I can't install macos without internet). (My motherboard is a Asus B550-E and I'm trying to install macOS Big Sur).
Thanks!

[Hackintomprocessing]

Hi,
Have you red the Tonymacx86 thread I mentioned above? You'll need FakePCIID.kext and the FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext.
As for the pci root addresses, do you have a bootable OS, windows or linux where you could have a clue about the proper address with a I/o register?
Hope that can help.

Yes I already have FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext.
I have windows installed, but I don't know how to look the i/o register

[Hackintomprocessing]

I can't help you very accurately with that but in device manager, you look for your device and you should find a clue about its pci path in its general properties.

[IVCrossway]

I found this under "Locations"

[hkfan45]

Has anyone figured out a way to avoid running the fakepciid kexts and still have a working 225-v Ethernet? Has anyone been in contact with the folks that handle the dortania guide to tell them it they should amend their guide to note that certain kexts are required?

[hkfan45]

I’m dealing with this issue right now as well. However, I found the correct address on Hackintool and added the Pci(0x1C,0x4) entry with device-id = 0xf215 etc, but the ethernet option still isn’t showing up in networking. I have no ethernet for FakePCIID related kexts installed as the OpenCore guide said they were unnecessary. Even Hackintool is now saying that the controller is a I225-LM!

Any idea what the issue could be?

Thanks

You ever figure out a way to get the i225-v running according to the Dortania guide without using kexts?

Yes, you simply have to add it as a kernel patch. Working fine on my Z490 Vision G which uses the i225-V as well

[Hackintomprocessing]

Brillant, thank you!
It seems that this kernel patch wasn't mentioned in the opencore 6.4 install guide (the one I used to built my config) or I missed it despise having red the guide several times...
It is now clearly mentioned in the opencore 6.8 install guide, didn't try it yet but seems promising!

[5T33Z0]

It's realtively new https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/config.plist/comet-lake.html#patch-2

I have updated the opencore version and added the patch, but it still doesn't work

Haven't try yet. I am still on Catalina, and waiting for a more stable version of Big Sur to make the move including that update.

Maybe we won't even have to patch the thing as 11.4 seems to include support for i225v, see the networking section of the article below :

I saw a Reddit post this morning about someone trying 11.4 beta and not having any luck with 225-v. They did mention they also have issues with it in windows so it’s not clear if it’s a hardware issue.

[Skymax1986]

that was me - still have not got it to work reliably - with FakePCIID it works, but not consistently, especially not after hibernation or if rebooting from Win. So at least on Asus Prime Z490-A it seems to be problematic.

Tell Asus yours is defective and you want a new one.
