+The Netgear N150 WNA 1100 WLAN stick is based upon the Atheros AR9271 Chipset. The kernel 2.6.35.3 contains the driver for that chipset, but the specific USB ID for the Netgear stick is not listed in the source. Therefore I applied a little manual patch to the file ''buildroot/output/build/linux-2.6.35.3/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/hif_usb.c'' changing the current device ID against the ID  0x0846, 0x9030 of the Netgear device. (Maybe someone can add in here how to add instead how to change...)
