Hello, I recently made a Hackintosh with a Gigabyte H270N-WIFI. The built in WIFI is Intel and not working with it. Can you please suggest some good USB WIFI adapters that are compatible with Hackintosh

Thanks For Your Help

I plan to build a hackintosh with a similar motherboard, the Gigabyte Z270N-WIFI soon (the case only ships in january…), so I'm very interested in an answer to that topic, especially since it's my first PC build in 13 years. :)

Preliminary research indicates that you can plug a card in the M.2 slot used by the card's original wifi adapter.

Here's a thread that advises using an iMac's card with a cheap adapter: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/mini-pcie-wifi.231566/ (I hope there's a cheaper route though?)
 
michelv gave you the right answer/lead. :thumbup:
 
Just in case, FYI many cards work with that adapter. If you buy the cheapest (BCM94360CS2) you won't get Bluetooth from the card. If that's a deal breaker, get the BCM94360CD. (I just bought the latter card and an adapter.)
 
Thanks For you help

I think a usb WiFi adapter would be cheaper. You just have to find one compatable with Mac.

If anyone can suggest good USB WIFI Adapters, Please do.

I made a very compact build and do not want to open up the whole thing again

I have a old TP-Link WN822 that runs with very old drivers (for 10.10 or something) from their site on High Sierra.
Thank you for your input
