Hello Xianyi,

Can you post the output of 

$ lspci -nn | grep Atheros

$ lspci -nn | grep Atheros
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9285
Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) [168c:002b] (rev 01)

My bad, the card that I'm using is AR9285, I will file a bug report at
ELRepo to see if they can create the package that is required for the
drivers.

Another option you can try is to install Kernel-ml [0] or kernel-lt [1]
as the driver is supported in either of these kernel.

[0] http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml
[1] http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-lt

I forgot to ask, did you try sudo modprobe ath9k?
