There's a script available that will add most of the 3rd party  
wireless adapter support into the Apple extension so that "Broadcom  
chipset" adapters are recognized as "Airport" (meaning they are fully  
OEM identical to Apple Airport products in usage).

See this page for the script and info:
<http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=51725>

The current script is called bcm43xx_enabler_0.5.3.sh.zip and is  
listed at the bottom of the page for download (you may need to  
register to download the file).
