Replying to [ticket:1619 Ronan Gaeti]:
> Hi, I've been trying such a long time to use madwifi-ng drivers for the
following card: Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5211
802.11ab NIC (rev 01). Yesterday I found a way to get it working. I'm
using Debian Testing with kernel 2.6.22-2 and I've set some parameters for
module loading. On /etc/modprobe.d/local I had to put: "options ath_pci
autocreate=sta rfkill=0". Otherwise I was able to see my access point but
I could not associate to it, and if I was able to associate (using
autocreate=sta) I was not able to properly connect to it (no dhcp answer).
I guess it would help anyother person who is trying to use ng drivers.
Best regards.
