Hi,
I'm thinking about updating the wireless card on a CentOS 5.3 box.
The Wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless says that
the ath9k driver ships with CentOS, but I can't find it. I've tried
modinfo, locate, yum search, and yum provides, but they all come up
empty. Am I missing something, or is the Wiki need correcting? I've
also searched the CentOS forums and others share my confusion.
I'm afraid the ath9k part of the wiki page is in error. The current
CentOS kernel does not have this driver. You need a newer kernel as
seen in this forum post:

A solution at this moment is to use ndiswrapper and detailed
instructions were posted in the same thread:
