Best Mini PCI_e_ Atheros card with a, b, g, n and 2x2 MIMO? Or,
at least, good one?

Hello, Freebsd-wireless.
Now I'm using very good MiniPCI (not express!) card from Microtic.
It works well. But my old router (Sokeris net5501) doesn't work well
by itself: it is very CPU-limited, and looks like overheated easily.
So, I'm thinking about upgrade. But all modern small MoBos (MiniITX
ones, like Zotac's or new Sokeris net6501) doesn't have MiniPCI, only
MiniPCIe.
So, I will need new WiFi card too (Zotac has configurations with
WiFi, but it seems, that it is RaLink based, and two-channel cards
are supplied only with "top" MoBos for "true" LGA1155 CPUs, which I
don't want, because they needs active cooling).
Different "ISP-oriented" Internet shops sells MiniPCI cards, but
MiniPCIe is not common (yet?).
Could you name MiniPCIe _card_ (not _chipset_) which is Atheros based,
supports 2.4/5Ghz, has 2 channels and MMCX connectors?
Internet shops, china markets and e-bay is Ok :)
