No, "internet Connect" software will work the same.
It is still compatible with Airport stuff. It wouldn't surprise me they just renamed it Airport instead of Internet Connect.
Just set the connections up the same way.
All connection software are basically the same, they all have to use the same requirements to be used by different systems, except they just rename it to what they want.
