ath5k drivers are included in the Linux kernel from version 2.6.25 and up -- if you're running Voyage 0.6 or greater then you already have them.

Note:  This wiki entry only applies to Voyage 0.6 and newer.  This information is from [[http://wiki.debian.org/ath5k|Debian ath5k]] where more details are available.


__To remove madwifi-ng and use ath5k instead:__


Enable writing:

''remountrw''

Remove the madwifi-ng modules that are installed by default on Voyage:

''apt-get remove madwifi-*''

Delete the kernel module blacklist that was in place:

''rm /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi'' or move to another directory for safe-keeping.

Install the iw tools:

''apt-get install iw''

Change all configurations referencing ''ath0'' to ''wlan0'', i.e. ''/etc/network/interfaces'', and update ''wlanconfig'' commands to ''iw''.
