The Realtek device is the one used for your wired network.
The Atheros device is not in the tables for the latest version of any wireless
driver. Perhaps it will work if you do the following:
su -
modprobe -v ath9k
echo "168c 0037" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ath9k/new_id
exit
The above will work if the driver handles the device, but it is not yet in the
tables. Perhaps the Atheros developers will know the status of that device.

please do not top post. Always put your answer below the quoted material as I
