Hi all,

My new laptop (asus F80L-4P007C) comes with an Atheros AR5418 wifi chipset,
which apparently doesn't work well with madwifi from current Lenny. This
chipset is reported to work with madwifi at:

        http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility/Atheros#AtherosAR5418


It's reported there to be working on an Apple Macbook.  Is that what an
asus F80L-4P007C is?

AFAIK the madwifi drivers do not work with '802.11abgn' chipsets.

Maybe with a newer kernel that includes the ath9k driver, it 'might' work.
