Hi jeff,

You don't have a atheros based wireless device. It seems that you have a
broadcom wireless device:

none4@pci2:5:0: class=0x028000 card=0x000617f9 chip=0x431814e4 rev=0x02
hdr=0x00                                                  
    vendor   = 'Broadcom Corporation'                                                                                             
    class    = network                                                                                                            

This is probably your wireless device.

Robert
