Hi,

I use madwifi drivers on my macbook which has a Atheros chipset. Try having a look here madwifi.org .

If the stable package doesn't work try downloading the latest development branch. I needed to do that to get the drivers I needed.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask mohamed for more information if necessary.
