Hi, Check in wicd settings which routing tool you use. Select "route" when using "ip". I got some problems with wicd and "ip".
I just using similar ath9k card on 3.0.x with no problem. I always use wifi as module. And I don't use genkernel, just my plain config and easy initrd for lvm root support and fbsplash. Robert.
