I just purchased an Asus WL-500W (almost identical to the Asus WL-500gP, but with 3 antennas and different radio).

I'd like to replace the stock wireless mini-pci with an Atheros based Ubiquiti SR71-A (802.11a/b/g/n), does OpenWRT work with this Ubiquiti card yet?

My long-term goal (and hopefully OpenWRT development will head this way) is to have an Atheros based 802.11a/b/g/n (w/ MIMO) running OpenWRT on an Asus WL-500W (nice hardware)

Sincerely,
Mr. Lister

P.S.  Newegg has a deal going on right now with the Asus WL-500W ($20 mail-in rebate good through Oct 5, 2008)

Sounds like a great idea. Have you found an answer to your question yet?
