Hi, Stefan!
Thanks for your explanation!

If you take a look at the vendor's windows driver for TP-LINK WN422G
*v2*,
how can I know I have v2 of the device?
it becomes obvious that the device does not use the ZyDAS zd1211/
Atheros
5007UG cipset, but has switched to the new Atheros AR9271 chipset (which
technically is a 150 MBit/s 802.11n "lite" chipset family) instead.
%ATHER.DeviceDesc.9271% = ATHER_DEV_9271.ndi, USB\VID_0CF3&PID_9271
%ATHER.DeviceDesc.7010% = ATHER_DEV_7010.ndi, USB\VID_0CF3&PID_7010
%ATHER.DeviceDesc.1006% = ATHER_DEV_1006.ndi, USB\VID_0CF3&PID_1006
OK, I found this section on the CD with the drivers but my product id is
1006. How do you know it's AR9271 chipset and not, say, AR1006?
I found /AR9271/i on the CD in driver files for Windows 2000, XP, XP64.
Vista driver files don't have this substring anywhere (they have '9271'
in netathur.inf 6 times, and '1006' is 6 times in analogus lines as well).
At this moment a new driver called ath9k_htc is under (early)
development:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc
If i understand correctly 'Status' section, this driver is wireless and
radioless at this moment, right?
Maybe I should check this driver to see if it recognizes my card correctly?
best regards,
Piotr
