Hi,
I have an Airnet AWN108 PCMCIA card. It used to work with Madwifi, as
per here [0], but it only works intermittently (i.e. once in a while it
works, but most of the time it just fails to work without much in the
way of informative errors) with ath5k, using recent wireless-testing
kernels. lspci identifies it as an 'AR5212/AR5213 Multiprotocol
MAC/baseband processor (rev 01)', but ath5k calls it an 'Atheros AR2414
chip found (MAC: 0x79, PHY: 0x45)'. The supported device pages [1]
have no entry for the 2414, although various google hits indicate that
it has worked for some. What is the support status for this card?
