To Whom It May Concern,
I downloaded the firmware update from http://jxself.org/ath9k-htc/ so that I
could use my Atheros ThinkPenguin usb wireless adapter.
The thing is, in the README, it says that I have to "build the toolchain" :
* Linux:
$ make toolchain
* FreeBSD:
$ gmake toolchain
(Yes, I made this work on FreeBSD as well.)
* Next, build the firmware.
* Linux:
$ make firmware
* FreeBSD:
edit the build script, change make to gmake, and then
$ ./build
You will end up with two .fw files - one for the AR7010 and one for
the AR9271 in the target_firmware directory.
Then what?
----------
You need to then copy this into the relevant location for your operating
system. Yes, this means you need a driver. No, there's no FreeBSD
driver yet for this particular chipset, sorry."
So, I'm not sure what to do and your help is much appreciated!
