Although this is not very hard to do, it can get to be very annoying if you reboot your computer frequently. You have to turn on a utility every time. In addition to installing drivers, in order to get WiFi working correctly with a USB adapter, you will have to turn on a third-party WiFi utility app every time you boot your Hackintosh.This brings its fair share of disadvantages: This is not the case for USB adapters, which always require third-party drivers. As we discussed in last year's article, some PCI adapters are 'natively' supported in Mac OS X, meaning that they will work on your Hackintosh automatically. In many cases, buying a PCI WiFi adapter would actually be a better choice. That being said, using a USB WiFi adapter isn't for everybody. This means that you might not even have to buy a new adapter for your Hackintosh if you already own a USB WiFi adapter, there's a decent chance that it'll work in Mac OS X. A lot more USB adapters work. While Mac OS X only supports an extremely limited number of PCI WiFi adapters, there are literally hundreds of USB WiFi adapters that work with OS X to some degree or another.It's not a big price difference, but it's still something worth considering. Sometimes, you can even find USB adapters on sale for half that price. USB adapters are slightly cheaper. Most PCI adapters cost $30-40, while USB adapters rarely cost more than $20.Mini-ITX motherboards are even worse most of them only feature a single PCI slot, making a USB WiFi adapter all the more important.

Micro-ATX motherboards usually only come with 2-3 slots. You may not want to waste an extra slot on your WiFi adapter if you plan on connecting a lot of PCI devices, such as graphics cards, sound cards, Firewire cards, RAID cards, TV tuner cards, or so on. USB adapters don't take up an extra PCI slot. Most motherboards have a relatively limited number of PCI slots.
