    Is there a bug in the ath manual page then?

         Netgear WAG311 AR5212 PCI a/b/g
         Netgear WAB501 AR5211 CardBus a/b
         Netgear WAG511 AR5212 CardBus a/b/g
         Netgear WG311 AR5212 PCI b/g
         Netgear WG511T AR5212 CardBus b/g

    It clearly says that the WG311 is an atheros chipset.

    Hmm, it looks like someone in the know could do with reviewing the ath
    manual page.
