And if you are adding packages into the distribution, might I suggest these 
as well?
- rf-kill (kernel kills RF by default now, so probably a gotta-have)
- wireless-tools (pretty much always needed for wireless)
- usbutils (very useful for anything usb)
- iw (iwconfig in wireless-tools is going away and doesn't work with sticks 
like the TP-Link now)
- atheros-firmware (nice to have because of the TP-Link's popularity)

Thanks!
