Hi all,
I am new to CentOS. I built myself a desktop with an additional PCI wireless card 'TP-LInk WPN3800', which I have checked needs an ath9k driver.
**04:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9300 Wireless LAN adaptor*
Following the wireless connection tutorial on CentOS wiki, I have both kernel-devel 2.6.6 and ath9k installed. Then I tried
$ modprobe ath9k
*but nothing happened.
Then I input
*$ service NetworkManager start $ chkconfig NetworkManager on
*to access the Network Manager and no wireless connection options appear.
I do not think it is a big problem for you guys, but I am really a beginner. Please share me some solutions for that.

You can try the drivers from ELRepo [0], did you install CentOS 6.4? The latest kernel is 2.6.32.
I'm using the same drivers on my laptop and the package that I installed was kmod-atl1e-1.0.1.14-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
