Using dadwifi revision 2167 with the lastest version of wireless-dev 2.6
.21-r1 doesn't let the ifconfig bring up the interface, nor it is
recognized by networkmanager, the card is an ubiquiti scr, I'll attach
both lspci and dmesg of when I insert the card in:

the last line is when I try to bring up the interface with #ifconfig wlan0
I've also tried dadwifi-openhal and I have the same problem
if you need anything else let me know...
