Short version: that *hardware* can communicate with a base station,
when loaded with it's factory-standard retail firmware.

When installed into an Airport, that firmware {amy not be,is unlikely
to be} what's actually running, and the card, removed from the Airport
might {not run at all in a laptop,no longer work as a client card at
all} (depending on how they did things).

Cheers.
