Thanks for the response, it really help me out! In case that I install
centos 5.1 in my laptop, not in the virtual machine, you think that with
this wifi card I could use it easily or I would need to use ndiswrapper or
madwifi I am asking this because im new to linux world and I am going to
make a big step leaving behind my windows box.
Thanks to all!

You should be able to run a NAT'd virtual network adapter pointed at
your atheros wifi card. The VM won't see it as a wifi card but rather
a normal network card. Last I checked you couldn't run a bridged
virtual network card against a wireless card due to some missing
functionality in many wireless card drivers.
You'll need to make sure that the wifi card on the host is configured,
connected and has an IP address in order for the guest VM to work with
it.
