I should thank you all for the fast response, problem solved Thanks to Stuart Henderson & Jonathan Gray. you sent me on the correct path
Correct 0x0168 is atheros vender ID (i had not transcribed incorrectly 0x0148 was the dmesg) , seams the system and card config was incompatable Issue was WPN311 adaptor is not happy of being placed low in the pci bus at least in this case .. if memory serves me, this board has the last slot piggy backing of the second that obviously does not help, Once the wpn311 was placed first it worked alone .. then just a matter of time till i found two other nics to work togther nicely.
