[fabiosun]

Thanks to @Gengik84 to have found this way to solve a very annoying problem

 

This is a pretty simple way to have a working ethernet Gigabit card using one of the most powerful ASUS x299 motherboard without using any flash or patching other than three attached kext

 

 

 

1) SmallTreeIntel8259x.kext v.3.3.15 

2) FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext (thanks to rehab man)

3) FakePCIID.kext (thanks to rehab man)

 

kexts in point 2 and 3 go in L/E (then use kextrepair app to repair permissions and rebuild caches)

 

download from download section Kext&repair V2.2 and DPCI manager to see our ethernet device ID

see this pictures

then you have to modify accordly FakePCIID_Intel_GbX.kext info.plist and SmallTreeIntel8259x.kext info plist as pictures below

 

 

here are kext used in this guide
