Upgrade module WiFi mid-2012 MBP?

Hello

I have a MBP mid-2012 13 inches and I've already updated the memory, ssd and battery.

I would like to know if the Wifi module is upgradable?...

I currently have an 802.11n Wifi module that I wrapped up as upgrade to Wifi-ac

Interfaces:

EN1:

Card type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0xF5)

Firmware version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (7.21.95.175.1a6)

MAC address: 5 c: 96: 9 d: 8 d: af:ef

Locale: FCC

Country code: U.S.

Supported PHY modes: 802.11 a/b/g/n

The supported channels: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 149, 153, 157, 161, 165

Wake On Wireless: support

AirDrop: support, channel 149

Map of the airport is certainly available in this model:

However, newer Mbps AC cards are of a completely different form factor, so I doubt that they would work. I've not seen any internal third party replacements offered at all speeds.

There may be an external option, like this:

  • Should I upgrade my macbook mid 2012 lion 10.7.5 pro to El capitan?

    Some things have worked odd how wifi does not immediately connect and safari in place, and El capitan appears to be sound got some interesting features and is relatively stable, so I think the upgrade.

    However, I wonder if my material from mid-2012 (macbook pro) be able to match with the El Captian software?

    People have already done this without problems?
    Thank you

    No, nobody... Seriously? El Capitan will be much better than the Lion even on your old equipment for many decades.

    Basic steps for the OS X upgrade

    Save the installer somewhere before you actually install El Capitan because Setup deletes automatic after installation. If you get a 16 GB USB flash drive and download DiskMaker X , you can create your own flash bootable installation USB key.

  • Replace the HARD drive in mid-2012 MBP of SSD?

    Given to replace my HARD drive of 1 TB in MBP mid-2012.  This MBP has already been customized (by Apple) to 2.9 GHz i7 8 GB mem.

    I'm looking for a solution at least to 1 TB also. How about this:

    Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB 2.5 inch SATA III internal SSD (MZ-75E1T0B/AM)

    IS it really that simple, as suggested by some video: current copy to SSD connected externally, than to go ahead with replacement? Then you can continue normal OSX updates as usual?

    Is it really worth?

    Yes, I do some "prosumer" video (FCP) and audio (Logic, Cubase, Pro Tools) - and use external USB 3 HARD drive.

    Yes, it was worth it. The difference between day and night.

    It's easy. How to create a clone of startup

    I don't know Samsung but 2.5 "is inside that you need, SATA III Yes.

  • Can I use stock RAM since the mid-2012 MBP aluminium end-2008 MB?

    This is my first post so I apologize if it is not posted in the right place.

    I have a late 2008 aluminium MacBook (2.0 GHz) with 2 GB of RAM and a mid-2012 MacBook Pro (2.5 GHz) with 4 GB of RAM.

    I want to upgrade the RAM of these two laptops, but in the most effective way possible. I wanted to buy an upgrade to 8 GB for my Macbook Pro for mid-2012, then use 4 GB of this machine to upgrade my end-2008 aluminium MacBook.

    Is it possible to use the RAM from mid-2012 MacBook Pro aluminum end-2008 MacBook? Would be great, if so.

    Thank you!

    Nope, totally different form.

  • Need instructions/tips for no Win8.1 on mid 2012 MBP pro audio problem

    Thank you for taking your time looking in my question.

    My Machine: Macbook Pro retina no Mid 2012

    What I wanted: install win 8.1 pro 64 bit on a second SSD completely (without Partition) / replace the optical drive

    My problem: everything works fine, but no sound. Drivers seem to be the cause:


    How I installed windows:

    1. I put the own ssd in the main Bay + optical drive with disk 8.1 win

    2. Windows disk initialized and installed windows 8.1 64-bit without errors

    3 install the drivers for bootcamp support

    4 returned the Mac ssd go back to the main Bay and put the ssd of windows in the caddy and then in the optical Bay

    5. starting is by holding alt and choosing between mac os, recovery and boot efi (which contains windows)

    What I tried (all of the following are ineffective):

    1 reinstall/repair drivers bootcamp support from different sources (of the download on the website of apple and the bootcamp assistant application)

    2 reinstall the realtek drivers

    3. how to install intel drivers graphics hd 4000 (found a source who said it would do the trick, there is no)

    4 uninstallation of controller high definition Audio (it always seems to come back)

    5. manually download and install the drivers http://www.stuffedcow.net/files/CS4207_WinVista_Win7_32-64-bit_6-6001-1-30.zip cirrus

    I get the following error:

    6. place the ssd of windows in the main Bay

    7 troubleshooting sound (a 99% sure that this would not work)

    8 throw up my hands in despair and uncontrollable crying afterwards (was probably the most effective on 8)

    That I need clarification on:

    I found found some sources say that installing windows via EFI mode causes no sound, but I'm not sure if the way I installed it is considered to be the efi mode as I have never had an option for efi mode. However when I start upward and hold option the name of the windows disk named ' BOOT EFI. Efi mode is how I installed windows?

    What I need instructions on:

    Some sources claim that I need to install windows in hybrid MBR mode however I do not know how I would install windows any differently than the way I did above. How can I go about installing, not in start efi mode, if I want to spend the whole ssd for windows / that I would do anything differently than the steps I listed up there?

    Thanks a lot again for your time and help!

    Windows must be in the main Bay and must stay in the main Bay after installation. You can either use the wizard of BC and create a USB installer which will also create a legacy BIOS/MBR W8.1 (default value for your specific model) or if you choose to do it manually, make sure that the icon of Windows from the installation media, not EFI Boot.

    If you start from the DVD W8.1, the default value is Boot EFI. BC Assistant did a bit of work for you, in order to avoid the is not a good idea.

  • Samsung Evo 850 and mid 2012 MBP

    I tried every way to get this macbook to boot from that disk of 250 GB samsung evo 850. He sees it as a disk, but cannot boot from it, can't take it apart during the partitioning, etc. I can connect via an external USB SATA connector, format, install 10.8 or Yosemite and it works perfectly, but when I move the drive to the HD connector internal and try to start it, I get a circle with a line through it. He sees the player when I hold down the option, but cannot boot from it.

    Is this a configuration unsupported or I do something wrong? I need to find a 840, which seems to have specific firmware mac and use it? I ran all the updates that are available via the USB SATA connector. I thought it was an update needed at first, but none was available.

    Any guidance is appreciated.

    Replace the internal connecting cable, SATA cable

  • BlackLight without graphics (MBP mid-2012)

    Long time lurker, first time poster.

    Hello everyone. I own a Macbook Pro, mid-2012 model (101), processor intel i5. Last summer, I upgraded the RAM 16 GB and 2 TB HARD drive. Earlier, I noticed my MBP ran hot and strangled more often than usual. I searched online for solutions, and I read on the application of new thermal paste. I bought the kit ArctiClean as well as the Arctic Silver thermal paste from Amazon and took care with the process of cleaning and application using an iFixit guide how apply the paste. I reassembled the Macbook Pro and the display came on well, the fan was noisy out of control, and research also indicated that I didn't apply enough thermal paste, so I still once disassembled, added a little more dough based on the suggested amount and put it back together. This time, however, when I cut off the computer, the sound the chime that's happened and everything but the screen was black! I sat there for a while and the fire of backlight and the keyboard is come (which means the computer started), but there was no image, just black light. I double and triple checked all the connections the card logic to ensure that everything was good and safe, but there was no luck. I have reset the SMC and the PRAM again, no luck. I know that my warranty is void so I'm not the penalty to take it to an Apple store, does anyone have any suggestions?

    PS - There is no drop or to the computer water damage

    Attaches the MBP to a monitor.  If the monitor is also black, which indicates a GPU problem.  If there is a good image on the monitor, the disply or display connection is defective.

    Don't be reluctant not to take the MBP to an Apple store genius bar.  All appraisals are FREE, regardless of the status of the guarantee.  Then, you'll know exactly what you are dealing with.

    Ciao.

    Thanks in advance for you help! you are always great.

    Let me discourage you to install the Samsung SSD.  There was some problems with Samsung SSD (in addition to success). noticed on these forums.  Note also that Samsung does not Mac compatibility on their web site.  I can recommend the SSD from Crucial and OWC based on my experience and that of others.

    Your MBP will support up to 16 GB of RAM.  However, the best sources for RAM compatible Macs are also OWC and Crucial.  When it comes to RAM and some brands simply do not work even when the specifications indicate they should the Mac are very selective.  Ensure that the specifications are: 204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
