I use is a Netgear WAG511 with AR5213 chipset, but only AR5210, AR5211, and AR5212 chipets are officially supported and the ath-man-page sais, that the WAG511 uses a AR5212 chipset...kind of strange. A second WLAN-Card I use, uses the ndisulator, with the same behavior. I still have no idea on how to setup the card(s) on boot, but configuring by hand works. My system is a 5.4-Rel on a IBM R31.
