Daniel and Mohammed,
Thank you for your answers.
I´ve just configured UGW 5.2 to enable ATH9K into mac80211.
Although, I still have an important question:

Which kernel version do I need to have a version of ATH9K driver that  supports 
chipset AR9390?  I didn´t find this answer in ATH9K developer´s site 
(http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k). I understood I´ll need to 
install a compatibility package in order to have the correct version of the 
driver running on my board, so I need to know the correct version of ATH9K that 
supports that chipset.
Could you help me, please?

Thanks and regards,
Ana

Hi Ana,

OpenWrt doesn't use the mac80211 driver release built-into the kernel. So all
you need to do is to make sure the mac80211 package containing the ath9k driver
is a recent enough version, and that which still work well even on Linux 2.6.32.

Good luck!


Daniel
