The atheros5000.device wireless network driver has been updated to support some additional Atheros chipsets.

It now supports 802.11n-capable devices based on the following chips (but only at 802.11g speeds): AR5416, AR5418, AR9160, AR9280, AR9281 and AR9285.

It also now supports additional radio chips that may be used in some non-802.11n-capable devices: AR2316 and AR2317. This may allow additional AR5212-based devices to work.

A 32-bit beta of the new version is attached below. A bugfixed version of WirelessManager is also included. Feedback is very welcome as I have only been able to test AR9285 support so far.

That's fantastic news! Thank you for your excellent work. Just a question, does this driver work on AROS 64bit or is it just for 32bit version?

Thanks. There will be a 64-bit version once it's out of beta (should be a week or two at most).
