Sierra-Friendly Wifi Card
My recently-acquired 2009 MacPro was built at a time when wifi was still an optional add-on for Apple. Adding a wifi card to a Mac Pro can be daunting because of the tight quarters and numerous screws to be removed. But this upgrade was relatively simple, in spite of warning on several mac fix-it sites. After locating the wifi slot, one merely needed to move the antenna wires out of the road and secure the card with the provided screws. The trick comes with selecting the right antenna wires, in this case Wires 1 and 3, and plugging them onto the card terminals. The latter can be difficult because there is no room for fat fingers and the attachments are different than most mac users are accustomed to using.
My experience went smoothly and the card immediately was recognized upon re-boot and voila, I had bandwidth to use. Very simple, but patience is probably a good tool to have in your toolbox.
Speaking of toolboxes, the supplied screwdriver with magnet was a welcome addition to this kit as the card attachment screws are tiny and easily lost without a magnetized tip to securely grab the screw. With all of the nooks and cranies of the Mac Pro, you do not want to be fishing for screws or lifting the forty pounds of magnificent aluminum above your melon, shaking it for a lost screw.
