For people with madwifi issues or looking for a better solution to Atheros 
support, the elrepo repository is tesing new backported ath5k drivers that 
Red Hat is preparing for RHEL 5.4. We think we have fixed all known 
issues, but to help us with improved Atheros support in CentOS 5.4 we need 
to make sure Red Hat ships something that works across all boards.

So if you have an Atheros chipset and want to help test the newer ath5k 
driver, go to:

     http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/i386/RPMS/
or  http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/x86_64/RPMS/

and try the kmod-ath5k and kmod-mac80211 packages for your kernel. (First 
remove the madwifi driver though, to make sure there is no interference a 
reboot may help too).
