I'm in the process of searching bugs regarding this, but I think It may
be relevant here:

In the process of upgrading, upon reboot, I had no wireless
connectivity. (Making it a bit difficult to research a solution). After
a bit of prodding it was obvious that ath_pci was not loaded for my
adapter (Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless Network
Adapter (rev 01)). Loading it by hand brings up the interface.

After a bit more digging it seems the culprit is the "/etc/modprobe.d
/blacklist-ath_pci.conf". Clearly I don't understand the issue
completely as I have no idea how any atheros adapters could be expected
to work with their driver blacklisted.

Is it safe to just remove the ath_pci black listing? Is there a better
work around? How are Atheros adapters expected to work?
