style='font-size:12.0pt'>Atheros’ SST3 solutions also feature
Wake-on-Wireless™ to enable the host to sleep for longer periods for
enhanced efficiency. In all of the AR9300 networking solutions, Atheros has
implemented Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery (UAPSD), which allows PCs
to sleep more often and longer when connected to SST3-based routers. And,
across the entire family of AR9300 solutions, Atheros has implemented its
patented Efficient Power Amplifier™ (EPA) technology to lower the power
utilization when the PA is integrated onto the chip. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

are pleased to announce Atheros has released ath9k to the community. This
driver is aimed at inclusion to the Linux kernel and supports all Atheros IEEE

with respect to Linux. The ath9k driver comes shortly after Atheros hired two
key Linux wireless developers -- Luis Rodriguez and Jouni Malinen. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
