Hi,
I am having the same problem with two devices. Sparklan WPA-127N
(AR9380) and WLE300NX 6B (AR9390).
I added the line
{ PCI_VDEVICE(ATHEROS, 0xabcd) }, /* PCI-E AR9300 */
in pci.c but it did not work. This is the output of dmesg:
[17464.277232] ath9k 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
[17464.277258] ath9k 0000:01:00.0: setting latency timer to 64
[17464.277408] ath: Hardware device ID 0xabcd not supported
[17464.277426] ath9k 0000:01:00.0: Failed to initialize device
[17464.277738] ath9k 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A disabled
[17464.277770] ath9k: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -95
Did you solved the problem?
Thank you and best regards
