Hello,

Looking at the .inf file supplied with this usb stick, this seems very similar 
to the devices supported already by this driver:-

As an  initial test I added the USB device to be treated the same as 0CF3:9271 
(using current Compat Wireles source). On insertion I got this:-

Nothing further. No LED lit.

Removing stick and 'rmmod ath9k_htc' results in:-

This contines for another few minutes until:-

Have you any suggestions how I may help to investigate this?

Thanks

You have the wrong firmware.
Please see http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc.

I'll check the USB IDs and send a fix.
Thanks for reporting this.

Downloading the firmware again  fixed it (size: 51280) - works fine. I also 
notice you've added the USB IDs for this device now - thanks.

I just noticed on this page:-

<http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc/devices>

the USB Vendor for Netgear WNA1100 should be 0x0846.

Cheers

Thank you!  I've updated the list from the current driver code.
