Wireless with an Intel 802.11a/g/n

I've recently installed Arch and now I'm trying to configure the computer to network wirelessly. I have an HP dv6 with an Intel 802.11a/g/n which uses an orinoco_pci driver (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Hardw … CardsIntel).
I've followed the Wireless Setup wiki (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wir … up#orinoco) but while rebooting the computer gave this error message: "FATAL= Module wlags49_h1_cs not found"
I've tried modprobing wlags49_h1_cs (which gave the same results) and then modprobing orinoco and orinoco_pci and putting them in the rc.conf modules array but no luck.
This is my rc.conf

Sorry, didn't realize I had to install wl_lkm, but I might have found a solution.

I solved the problem, I simply installed the wrong driver since I misread from this (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Hardw … CardsIntel) page.
