Because the package revision looks older, I didn't try ath v0.7.2 yet, but I
tried it this time.
It seems not to work unfortunately.

ifconfig: cannot open link "ath0": DLPI link does not exist << it seems not to
work..
I tried the pre-installed one (REV=2008.03.22.10.56) before my post, but it
didn't work either.
(I added 'ath "pci168c,1c"' to /etc/driver_aliases by update_drv then tried
"ifconfig ath0 plumb" at that time)
Is the current package for AR52xx, not AR242x after all?
