the main thing to look for in all the variants is the shape of the antenna end...the characteristic squared off thick rectangle and antenna port on the end are a dead giveaway. the proxim variants' antennae look different. if the antenna looks like an orinoco, it IS an orinoco regardless of what sticker you see on it.
and to be extra sure just look at the FCC ID on the back.
it's always IMRWLPCE24H no matter if it's a silver or gold or whatever branding.

the pics posted by peekitty above say it all. and notice on madhadder's proxim photo the rounded flatter antenna.
