Here's the lspci for the SR71-A that doesn't work with ath9k:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless
Network Adapter (rev 01)
Subsystem: Atheros Communications Inc. Device ee1c
... ee1c? Err, that isn't right. Not by a very, very long shot.
What board are you putting this into?
From FreeBSD on a RSPRO (ar71xx mips):
ath0@pci0:0:17:0: class=0x028000 card=0x40820777 chip=0x0027168c
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
class = network
That definitely, positively is the same AC1A revision that you have.
It even does 11n(ag) too. Honest. I've seen it. :-)
This and the previous AR93xx "0xabcd" device id post is starting to
sound a lot like something's not waking up the PCI bus and/or chip
"right" in order to get the PCI vendor id init'ed from the EEPROM..
Well, I put in one NIC, it works fine, I put in the other, and it doesn't.
Same system, reproducible on other systems from same manufacturer
(Lanner, LEC 2010E).
Haven't tried it on a totally different motherboard. I'll send you this
broken NIC if you want...I'm too tight on time to hack on it now...
So, you were right. I put this NIC in another system (VIA C3) and it comes up
as AR9160 and loads ath9k driver just fine.
00:0c.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9160 802.11abgn Wireless PCI Adapter (rev 01)
