    Hi all.
    I'm having problems with the ndiswrapper and my wireless tp-link tl-wn422g
    with the version 2, that works with Atheros chipset, not with ZyDAS (v.1).
    With ZyDAS (Zydas ZD1211B aka Atheros AR5007UG) works perfect, but not with
    the new chipset.

    I believe, the Win2 driver is the same, but i'm not sure.
    Works perfect with the supported driver on Windows XP.

    I also requested help to support at www.tp-link.com via email.

    Hello,

    I have purchased the same product, Using a driver for linux, find the source
    and compile Compat Wireless..

    open a terminal, you need a root :)

    Download this firmware and copy files to the directory / lib / firmware /
    ar9271.fw http://www.2shared.com/file/tAXCAjww/ar9271.html

    Verify the location :)

     ls -la /lib/firmware/ar*

    If you make a mistake to end the program was the opportunity to use the "scripts/driver-select ath9k_htc"
    
    1. make or scripts/driver-select ath9k_htc 
    2. make install
    3. make unload
    4. reboot
    

    Simple instructions on how not to use drivers from Windows :)
