Hey guys,

I don't know which PCI wifi card I'm able to use!
I need it because in my room I haven't ethernet or good wifi so I putted a antenna on my old PowerMac in front of my door!

Now I've builded a hackintosh and want to use the antenna again.

Or do you know other ways to get good internet connection?

I need an antenna because there is no USB cable with is long enough to get to the point with minimum 350 kb/s (with actually isn't that fast) so I need an antenna.

And that's why I boot an Edimax USB Stick with antenna connector!
When it arrives I post if it works or not
 
You could build your own... that is what I did. I bought a used Macbook airport card and a mini PCI-e adapter. There are instructions here in the forums, but it is very simple to do, cheap, and works great!
 
According to http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/search/label/CustoMac
It says this is a compatible with Mac OS X.
Mini-PCIe to PCI-e Adapter

I also know this because I asked at a PC parts store and they said it is compatible with Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.

I also got a glimpse at the packaging and it is true it should work.
