2.7 Ghz is outside the ISM band, at your own risk.

Yes, if you know how to modify madwifi accordingly, ath5k does not work with 
the Fonera because the Fonera does use AHB as the interconnection bus between 
the CPU and the Wi-Fi core, not PCI.

Have a look at trunk/package/mac80211/patches/001-disable_drivers.patch to see 
how you can re-enable the compilation of ATH5K within compat-wireless. Then 
add a KernelPackage template for ath5k in trunk/package/mac80211/Makefile.
