The bcm4366 chip is in the list, it will work. It would be difficult to list every card ever sold with that chip.

If you already own the card, go ahead and try it. I would not go out and buy that card to use on Linux / OpenWrt due to very limited support of any Broadcom wifi chips including this one. Look for a card that has a QCA or MediaTek chip instead.
