Not that I could find...
While searching for an answer I came across this:

The following thread discusses compatibility between Apple and other vendors.

It may have something to do with the Wi-Fi standard these devices are operating at. Is your router equipped with 802.11g/n functionality? Mine only has 802.11b.

The current standard for wireless networking is called 802.11b, which transmits information at a speed of 11Mbps. By comparison, regular wired networks connect at 100Mbps. Make sure the wireless product you buy has been "WiFi" certified, as this means they have been tested for compatibility with other brands. An emerging specification for wireless is 802.11g (such as in the case of the Apple AirPort Extreme) which boasts transfer speeds up to 54Mbps. However, you'll need to have a matching 802.11g card on your PC, and in the case of the AirPort, it means you'll need a Mac to get the full benefits of the speed increase.

This may be the reason for the compatibility issues.
