TP-LINK TL-WN322G usb wireless device not work, ID 0cf3:1006, Ubuntu 10.04

if needed more information, send me command-line and I gave the report!

I found a solution and it works fine!
I run these commands

cd /tmp
wget http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2
tar xjvf compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2
sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
cd compat-wireless-*
./scripts/driver-select ath9k_htc
make
sudo checkinstall

In the question that it will do, press y and Enter - after we write ath9k_htc and press 2 times Enter -
and for the last question that it will do just press Enter

all these commands we can replace with the .deb archive where i upload.
- The .deb archive works only in kernel 2.6.32-22-generic and Ubuntu 32bit -

Then reboot our system, and after reboot we must download the firmware ar9271.fw from here http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git;a=blob_plain;f=ar9271.fw;hb=HEAD
and put it on folder firmware
/lib/firmware/

Then works fine!

Thanks to logari81 where made the .deb archive!

I made a .deb archive for kernel 2.6.32-23-generic and Ubuntu 32bit

A .deb archive for kernel 2.6.32-24-generic and Ubuntu 32bit

I tasted to Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat 10.10 Alpha2
and works great, out of the box!

thanks for the work,
I can not work to my TP-Link WN722N.
the chip set to be identical to others on jaunty kernel "rub" it worked.
following the steps from "vagrale.
I installed "lucid" but the procedure did not work.
I have serious difficulties to run the driver (Bus 002 Device 011: ID 0cf3: 9271 Atheros Communications, Inc.)

I tried with kernels rub 2.6.32.23/24 backports installed but nothing

 i can't get to work my TP-Link WN722N.
Bus 002 Device 011: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc
sorry my bad English
I tested your procedure vanagre about lucid but does not work.

Lucid kernel 2.6.32.23/24 test does not work
kernel-2.6.35-generic 020635rc5 test does not work

 i tried to compile the module with compat-wireless but there are some problems compiling the bt modules and the kernel doesn't start anymore after reboot

If you see here http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k_htc/devices ath9k_htc support your chipset,
and must be work! The deb packages, works only in 32bit system, and i write for which kernel work!
Try with Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat 10.10 Alpha2, boot from livecd,not install it, and test it if it works there!

vagrale:

hello, i had a problem installing "compat-wireless-2010-06_27-1_i386.deb". It replaced the UUID of the HDD in 'grub.cfg' with a wrong one supposedly one of yours. After the install when I attempt to reboot the GRUB gives a fatal error of unknown device.
Had to load from Live CD and modify /boot/grub/grub.cfg .

After a number of attempts I still cannot get the device 'ID 0cf3:1006 Atheros' loaded. So far I succeeded to install 'compat-wireless' with 'ath9k_htc' option according to your instruction and copied 'ar9271.fw' to the proper directory. I tried with 2.6.32-24 and 2.6.34 kernels.

@zandgreen
yes you have right! For some reason has problem!

If you had solved your problem,
please test this .deb package, i think it 's οκ! I tasted for 2 pc.

Works for kernel 2.6.32-24-generic and 32bit system

If you don' t have solve your problem, tell me to try to fix it!

<== TL-WN422G v.2.4 ID 0cf3:1006 ==>

Finally i could start the device with the latest 'compat-wireless':
http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2010-08-04.tar.bz2

and a fresh hardware ar9271 version:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git;a=blob_plain;f=ar9271.fw;hb=HEAD

if someone want to do all this, i think, is better way to try it with the follow six commands,
because the .deb packages have got problem after reboot for some users, i don' t know why.

cd /tmp
wget -O compat-wireless.tar.bz2 http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2
tar xjvf compat-wireless.tar.bz2
cd compat-wireless-*
./scripts/driver-select ath9k_htc
make && sudo make install

then reboot - and after reboot download the firmware ar9271.fw

this works for all kernels!

Thanks for your help zandgreen!

just for info, TP-Link TL-WN722N (or TL-WN722NC) works now out of the box in Ubuntu 10.10 ; as mentioned above, it sports the same AR9271 chipset from Atheros.
Monitor mode also working (tested briefly with airodump-ng)

TL-WN322G (v3.0) with chipset:
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0cf3:1006 Atheros Communications, Inc.
works out of the box in Ubuntu Maverick 10.10.

For Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS and oldest, must be install the driver ath9k_htc.
A easy workaround is the ath9k_htc-installer see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1564278

The ath9k_htc module is available in the linux-backports-modules-wireless-compat-2.6.35-lucid-generic (or something) package. My TL-WN322G works perfectly fine in lucid once installed.
