Did a search on this site about this card and no info was found.
Therefore here's the scoop:
TP-Link TL-WDN4800 card is a drop-in AirPort Extreme replacement complete with AirDrop support. The only issue I had is it didn't show that it was locked on my AirPort Base Station and didn't show signal strength, as if it was not latched on my network despite it was. Fixed itself automatically on next reboot, but I had to enter my SSID and password a second time.
Now I have full native WiFi with AirDrop for $45CDN, OSX sees it as an AirPort Extreme.
Let me know if this is of any help !
