That should not be true for the precompiled package. Usually such packages
don't come with the source that is required to build the driver anyway, so
I wonder whether I understood your first two sentences wrong.

No surprise here. ath0 is the name of a network interface that usually is
created once the driver is loaded. Instead you need to pass the name of
the module to load to insmod or, preferably, modprobe.
