Hello, and happy new year to everyone.
I recently installed OpenWRT 18.06.5 on an old laptop, Toshiba TECRA A11.
I tried many things to activate the WIFI chipset. The 'lspci' gives this informations:

I installed the package ath9k-htc-firmware, which should fit my hardware, but the WIFI card is not recognized
Do you have any useful hints to be able to use my WIFI card on this laptop ?
