Topic: asus wl500g premium with atheros based minipci-wifi

Since i don't expect there to be 2.6 kernel support for the default broadcom 43xx wifi in the asus wl500g premium, I wonder if I could swap the minipci broadcom with an atheros based minipci card.

Could this work, and what target would i need to select in the kamikaze configuration?

yes, I think it will work. Only thing you should do is dont choose the wl driver and choose the atheros driver. Or simply just try to use the image for netnear wgt634u.

The discussion might have continued from here.
