Madiwifi problems

Hey all,

I have just installed arch i686 on my desktop.  I have a madwifi card.

When I run the LiveCD, If I run iwconfig, ath0 shows up and I can connect to my wireless internet using dhcpcd easily.

After the install, if I run iwconfig, there is no ath0.

How can I get the wifi card working in my installed enviornment?

lspci -nn | grep -i Eth < Paste that into terminal and paste it here, Please if you say you have a "Atheros" card, then at least say the model of it
