Panasonic N5HBZ0000055 802.11abgn Wireless Adapter Not Working
I got this wireless usb adapter with my new tv. Thought it might be more useful for one of my home computers. It is listed as being supported by the ath9k_htc module, but I cannot get it to work. It does show under "lsusb" when plugged but the modules are not loaded. When I manually load ath9k_htc no interface is created. Also installed the "usb_modeset" package but no change.

Did you ever resolve this issue? I have encountered the same problem and have also done the same steps.

Re: Panasonic N5HBZ0000055 802.11abgn Wireless Adapter Not Working
The device ID was recently added to compat-wireless using the following patch from #linux-wireless on freenode.net:
http://sujith.github.com/patches/wl/000 … e-id.patch
In your compat-wireless directory, do a 'patch -p1 < 0001-ath9k_htc-Add-Panasonic-N5HBZ0000055-device-id.patch' and then recompile, install etc.

So with that patch, does your card work ?

Yep, everything has been working perfectly. I have been using it with hostap and shorewall, so now my computer is functioning as a wireless router.
