You could try fixing Wi-Fi with itlwm or Airportitlwm since it is stated as compatible in this compatibility list. But it does not work for me. It is recommended to buy another Wi-Fi card for better compatibility and features.
Wi-Fi does work, the card is somehow loose on my laptop and it only takes a replug to get it to work lol. Use itlwm
Bluetooth does not work.
