need to do this:
sudo sh -c "echo 'options ath5k nohwcrypt'
>/etc/modprobe.d/custom-wireless.conf"
So I tried this:
$ lsmod | grep ath
ath9k 155648 0
ath9k_common 24576 1 ath9k
ath9k_hw 479232 2 ath9k_common,ath9k

mac80211 839680 1 ath9k

ath3k 24576 0
bluetooth 561152 7 btrtl,btqca,btintel,hci_uart,btbcm,ath3k,btusb
