[[#supported|Supported devices]] are listed at the end of this page. Unlike the !MadWifi driver, ath5k does not require a binary HAL (hardware abstraction layer). No firmware is required to be loaded from userspace. {i} Atheros 802.11a/bg USB devices are supported by the [[zd1211rw]] driver. {i} Atheros 802.11n PCI/PCI-E devices are supported by the [[ath9k]] driver. == Installation == 1. Connect the device to your system. The ath5k kernel module is [[Modules|automatically loaded]] for supported devices. 1. [[WiFi/HowToUse|Configure]] your wireless interface as appropriate. <<Anchor(supported)>> == Supported Devices == The page [[HowToIdentifyADevice/PCI]] explains how to identify a PCI device. The following list is based on the ''alias'' fields of {{{modinfo ath5k}}} in Debian 3.16 (3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1) kernel images. ## list generated with: http://www.klabs.be/~fpiat/linux/hardware/modinfo-devnames/ ##TAG:LIST_1_START ~- {{{ PCI: 10B7:0013 3Com Corporation AR5212 802.11abg NIC (3CRDAG675) PCI: 168C:0007 Qualcomm Atheros AR5210 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5000 802.11a] PCI: 168C:0011 Qualcomm Atheros AR5211 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5001A 802.11a] PCI: 168C:0012 Qualcomm Atheros AR5211 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5001X 802.11ab] PCI: 168C:0013 Qualcomm Atheros AR5212/AR5213 Wireless Network Adapter PCI: 168C:0014 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:0015 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:0016 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:0017 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:0018 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:0019 Qualcomm Atheros (Device name unknown) PCI: 168C:001A Qualcomm Atheros AR2413/AR2414 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5005G(S) 802.11bg] PCI: 168C:001B Qualcomm Atheros AR5413/AR5414 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5006X(S) 802.11abg] PCI: 168C:001C Qualcomm Atheros AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) PCI: 168C:001D Qualcomm Atheros AR2417 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5007G 802.11bg] PCI: 168C:0207 Qualcomm Atheros AR5210 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5000 802.11a] PCI: 168C:1014 Qualcomm Atheros AR5212 802.11abg NIC PCI: 168C:FF1B Qualcomm Atheros AR2425 Wireless Network Adapter [AR5007EG 802.11bg] PCI: A727:0013 3Com Corporation 3CRPAG175 Wireless PC Card }}} -~ ##TAG:LIST_1_END <<Anchor(unsupported)>> === Unsupported === Devices with an Atheros AR5005VL (AR5513) chip (PCI ID 168c:0020): * D-Link DWL-G520M (PCI) * D-Link DWL-G650M (Cardbus) * ZyXEL Zyair M-102 (Cardbus) * ZyXEL Zyair M-302 (PCI) Use of [[NdisWrapper|NDISwrapper]] may be possible for device support. == See Also == * [[ath9k]] - Atheros 802.11n PCI/PCI-E devices * [[WiFi/HowToUse|How to use a WiFi interface]] == External Links == * https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath5k ---- CategoryHardware | CategoryWireless |
