WiFi: No Hardware Installed after Mojave upgrade

What kind of setting can you please explain stepwise. Thanks

No, just the driver I installed for the Ethernet Port, I completely got rid of it again

I got an Access Denied after clicking “mojave ui sluggysh and laggy” link

Thanks for the tip!

Worked like a charm!

I think you can name it anything, but you might want to change the extension to .backup or something in case you need it. You can also delete it.

I do confirm that the issue appears after going 0% battery. Looks like something is corrupted after a complete turned off of the power source.

Very helpful. Thank you.

I tried the steps above but the file was not found. Do you have any suggestions for my situation? Thanks

Thank you. This worked for me!

Tried to remove Parallels, SMCFan, iStatmenu, Sizeup, TunnelBlick (openvpn) and did a reinstall today. No luck.

Same as Ibadan - no luck in safemode.

That said, in the systems log, I keep seeing something about the installer still trying to finish the install and something constantly crashing (configd via launchd).

Same issues ("WiFi: No hardware installed" and turned my Late 2014 iMac 5K 4gHz I7 with 32gb ram into a sluggish 286). Installed Mojave on an external USB 3.0 drive and booted from there with no issues. At least I can get to my files and online.

Booting from the internal Fusion drive continues to be problematic.

Ran Disk Utility / First Aid on the internal drive without finding anything.

I've an appointment at the Genius Bar tomorrow. If no success there I'll downgrade, but that means having to wipe the drive because I'll have to go back to MacOS Extended (Journaled) from APFS.

This is unbelievable. IT WORKS! IT WORKS! IT WORKS!

Seems really odd that renaming a file that is no longer used can fix a problem, but it does.

I installed so so many betas and always failed. JoeMan71, you should get a medal!!!

I am following directions and laptop challenged. I have the /etc/... file. I’m not certain how to remove it. I typed in rm /etc/... and I am prompted to override the root/wheel...? I have answered “yes” and “y” and permission is denied. Anyone able to help me?

In the finder (with no applications running at all) go to the ‘go’ menu at the top. Near the bottom it should say ‘go to folder’ . When you click on that it opens a small window.

Paste this

/Volumes/Macintosh HD/ETC

into the window

click the go button

you might have to enter your password

in the folder look for this file

sysctl.conf

if you find it delete it and empty the trash

then restart your computer

hopefully that helps

Installed Mojave on my iMac (after two quick and successful MacBook Pros) a couple of months ago and was completely screwed- like swimming in molasses, and with no internet. First ever Mac OS upgrade that went awry. Spent hours on the phone with Apple Support. Read this and thought I'd try. Terminal found and renamed the suspect file, and now I'm running Mojave.

Thanks for finding and posting this!
