With WEP encryption turned off they both work together fine.  I've
seen many used in mixed enviornments.  With WEP turned on, they
are completely incomptable.  The silver cards do a 40 bit encryption,
and the gold cards do a 128 bit encryption, and it seems the gold
cards can't be stepped back to 40 bit.
