Will it work? Or do I have to buy a router/bridge of the same make?

Cheers y'all.
I use a linksys router and a belkin pcmcia card, and my mate has a 3com card on the same network. I don't see why the situation should be any different for a bridge/router communication. As far as i know there aren't restrictions between makes, but it is best to double check with the manufacturers of each product just to be sure.
