--------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
New laptop with PCI-E bus.. Atheros Chipset AR5006EX (AR5423).. I can
associate with an AP, but for some reason the packets are maybe getting
garbled. Don't have windows to test with, but I have another Atheros
chipset card in my old laptop that works great. I can put them both in
athdebug mode if there's any testing that needs to be done. It would a
great alternative card those the newer laptops with PCI-E that don't want
to use Intel. Router has been reset to factory defaults to rule out
WPA/WEP or MAC filtering as well.
