I've been using ath9k in a 2.6.27-rc3 testing kernel and it works great! The sureest bet would be to download and compile that kernel which I've documented here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_install_the_development_version_of_atk9k. Alternatively, there is a thread in Ubuntu forums where a script has been posted to compile ath9k for older kernels and build it as a .deb package. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=874097 Kevin
