Is 802.11a supposed to work with wpi?

Thanks to Attilio I got my only other 11a card working and it can sync
up with the AP even with WPA. It's not a strong signal, but it works
just fine:

SSID/MESH ID   CHAN    RATE     S:N     INT    CAPS
my11assid       52     54M    -91:-96   100    EP   WPA

So this definitely appears to be a wpi issue.
