MP 1,1-5,1 Ethernet and Wireless adapter non responsive after installing Monterey on mac pro 5.1

no, as written a couple of times, update OCLP to 1.4.2, let it rebuild the ESP, let it do the post install patches, reboot.

If you dont need wifi, maybe all you need is update OCLP, just test it.

If you have a USB - Ethernet adapter (or can pick up one quickly), you can use such in the meantime to calm down.

I really appreciate you helping me but I'm not following...

ESP?

I can't run OCLP on the 5,1 as the OS won't let me. As there's no ethernet it can't verify the developer and I get the common error when trying to open the Privacy and Security prefs.

I think I'm reliant on creating a usable USB installer and downgrading to 12.7.3 again. I've done this but I'm not seeing the EFI partition on bootup from the USB.

Hope I'm making some sort of sense here...

You should be able to bypass the developer verification by right-clicking on the OCLP app, then choosing "Open" from the drop-down menu.

Yes, Macschrauber enlightened me. I didn't know that could be done. I'm up and running again

Great tip from DeltaMac concerning OCLP. Had same issue with ethernet and wifi and quickly fixed it.
