Comment (by ericwong):
I have a HG556a HW.C, from Vodafone and I thought it need Atheros radio
driver as the wiki says but it turns out my unit needs the rt28xx wireless
driver instead (Enable kmod-rt28xx-pci).
My boot log shows this when the wireless radio is detected and correctly
installed
[ 16.676000] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00lib_request_eeprom_file: Info -
Loading EEPROM data from 'rt2x00.eeprom'.
[ 22.912000] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00_set_rt: Info - RT chipset 3572, rev
0221 detected
[ 22.920000] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00_set_rf: Info - RF chipset 0008
detected
[ 22.932000] ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm

If you have similar problems, try install another radio driver, the WIKI
is not always correct.
