Hello All,
I've been using MadWifi since I picked up a PCMCIA card a few months
ago. I've tried out the ath5k driver, but can't get the card to 'iwlist
wlan0 scan' AP's, or even connect to an unsecured AP through 'iwconfig'
commands.
I've pasted an output of my dmesg output from both MadWifi and ath5k, as
well as lspci -v.

'lspci -v'
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR2413
802.11bg NIC (rev 01)
Subsystem: D-Link System Inc AirPlus G DWL-G630
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 20
Memory at 54000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Seems as if there is a discrepancy between:
MadWifi (reporting an Atheros 5212)
ath5k (reporting an Atheros AR5213A chip with a RF2112A radio)
lspci -v (reporting an Atheros AR2413 chip)
I can help debug any possible solution to this.
