    Netgear WPN311 not working

    hey guys. A while back I bought a WPN311, as It said on here:- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Wir...ssNetworkCards

    that the card worked out of the box. I learn recently that an upgrade in either feisty or gutsy broke the drivers, and it now only works with ndiswrapper, albeit flawlessly.

    ok, so no problems, time to go with ndiswrapper.

    I installed the drivers with ndiswrapper, and added the ndiswrapper module to boot, in /etc/modules

    so i reboot. nothing. same as always, showing only a small minority of the AP's in my area.

    ok, so now I do ndiswrapper -l to see if there are conflicting drivers.

    Code:
    telos@Cynosure:~$ ndiswrapper -l
    wpn311 : driver installed
        device (168C:0013) present (alternate driver: ath_pci)
    aight.. thats probably my problem,

    so,
    Code:
     echo 'blacklist ath_pci' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
    reboot, wireless completely killed. doesnt even pick up the AP's that it used to. any ideas?
