Apparently, you should use madwifi-utils-svn.

A quick AUR search would have provided that answer for you.

Anyway, I thought madwifi had been deprecated in favour of the kernel's ath*k drivers - can you not use one of them?

Thanks for replying

But madwifi-utils-svn is outdated and is not installed by makepkg.
I am not able to find a way to use kernel athk drivers. Do you know the way to use them ?

Re: No madwifi utils found

Same way you use any other kernel driver.....

This might help.
