Here is the interesting bit, when I first hooked this card I booted my mach= ine in Ubuntu I saw the same 168c:ABCD. After using it under Windows, I boo= ted in to Linux today and found that it is reporting the expected IDs. Now = ath9k works right out of the box, no Vendor ID hacking required. I am using= it as station right now. The other card is in a different machine. I will = try to swap the cards to verify my theory. I am thinking the Windows driver= applied a firmware update to the card. Or, the other card skipped quality = checks and has bogus EEPROM data. Any thoughts?
