I'm almost about to conclude that Atheros is not the way to go. So now I want to know, if anyone can recommend ANY card, being cheap and supporting the features mentioned above. I don't mind using NDIS, as long as it works flawlessly. Also it would be good, if the card was a popular one, so community support is more available. Thanks.
