ATrpms' packages are currently for 2122, so you'll need to update your
kernel first and then

yum install madwifi madwifi-kmdl-`uname -r`

follow the documentation on madwifi.org to setup the card thereafter.

BTW if you are not sure whether the model you are using is supported
by madwifi (the same model can have different chipsets in it depdening
on "model version") check the output of lspci. If it has Atheros in it
somewhere then madwifi is correct. Otherwise you need some other
driver.
