AirPort-Ready Macs
The following Macs are compatible with the Apple AirPort Card unless you see 'NO' in the AirPort card column. Please note that certain iMacs also require the Apple AirPort Adapter as noted. Also note that most newer Macs work with the AirPort Extreme card, not the AirPort card.
If you do not see your Mac on this list, please use our Card Chooser to find an AirPort-compatible card for it.
