Re: Will any 802.11g wireless access point work with an Apple Airport Extreme card?

Devices from different mfgrs which are manufactured to the same standard
should in theory work together. But most people don't recommend mixing
manufacturers. Imagine if you have a problem with the connection and need
technical support or try to make good on a warranty - one company is going
to blame the other's product.

There is also the problem that there are currently no 11g standard devices on
the market.
