The Realtek is indeed working, it is the one I am using.
The Atheros is not. I had discovered both that the driver needed was the
atl1c and that it ought to be in the kernel, but had assumed that I had made
a mistake somewhere because it is not working in Debian, although it worked
with Ubuntu 12.04 remix live CD. I didn't think of quizzing Ubuntu's kernel.
If the correct driver is in use, why does it not work in Squeeze?
