Now Edgy does not recognize what it is, says unknown, but it is smart enough to find out it is wireless. I went to System Setting--> Network Setting, configured the wireless essid to my regular one under ath0, disables and reanabled the card back and it has been working ever since. That was done over three months ago for the first time. I have been installing different packages and scripts and other components have failed, but not this one so far. I never even thought about even saving the manual, but I will oepn the box and check the model when I get a chance.
