will all apple branded wifi cards work in airport mod

[nige2000]

i know they recommend the broad com chipset but i see some of them are atheros (hope i spelt that right)

will it matter if i get the atheros as I'm finding it difficult to get a broadcom

anyone got any ideas

works under 32/64-bit : Broadcom ones
works under just 32bit : Atheros ones

But in general , you can get your module work by simply picking Broadcom 4322/4321 no matter it's apple branded or not (I've heard DELL branded one works, too)

My wifi mod is made by non-apple branded Broadcom 4322 wifi module, I bought it from China.

I bought it from taobao, a Chinese auction site, it took about 4 days to ship to my country.

I don't know the performance difference
