 Unfortunately, I cannot do anything with the card. I can 'up' it, but
 when I try to assign an address to it I get:
 
       ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Invalid argument
 
 ifconfig arguments were fine, everything is OK with vr0 interace. If I
 try tcpdump on ath0 I get:
 
       tcpdump: ath0: No such device exists
       (BIOCSETIF failed: Device not configured)
 
 
 I guess I started to celebrate to early... :)
