Hi,
An alpha release of my Atheros wireless driver is now available for download. I'll paste the contents of the README file here for convenience: This is an alpha test release of two components needed to use certain Atheros PCI-based wireless network adapters with AROS: WirelessManager and atheros5000.device. Note that the only encryption methods currently supported are WEP and WPA(1). To set up wireless networking, first follow these steps (which are also valid shell commands): - Copy atheros5000.device to DEVS:Networks - Copy WirelessManager to C: - Copy Wireless.prefs to ENVARC: - Edit ENVARC:Wireless.prefs - Copy ENVARC:Wireless.prefs to ENV: To test your wireless configuration, run the following command in the shell: WirelessManager atheros5000.device If a successful connection is reported, you can then configure WirelessManager to run at boot by adding the following line to S:User-Startup: Run WirelessManager atheros5000.device >NIL: Finally, you need to create a wireless interface that uses atheros5000.device in the Network preferences program. This is done in the same way as for a wired network.
