Hi,

The appropriate list for these questions is linux-wireless at vger.kernel.org. AR2425 is clearly supported
by the ath5k driver; have you tried modprobe ath5k?

Please do note that -rc kernels often introduce changes that break things, and the wireless subsystem
is not an exception. If ath5k doesn't work for you in your kernel, try 3.11.4.
