3Com 3CRPAG175B - card not recognized

I am running Arch on a Dell Latitude D810 and am trying to get my 3Com 3CRPAG175B wireless card to work. I was able to find information about the card at http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_part … dname=3Com and at http://backtrack.offensive-security.com … CK_Antenna, suggesting that I use the ath5k driver.

However, the card itself does not appear in my lspci output.

I thought that installing and modprobing the proper drivers would make it appear, but apparently not.

Does anyone know what could prevent the card from being listed? The card worked fine on Ubuntu without any out-of-the-ordinary configuration, so it's possible that it's a driver somewhere that I have missed.
