  Changing wireless card driver

  Ok so I'm using backtrack R1 (disk) on my old black Macbook and I noticed I couldn't connect to aireplay-ng
  
  Under chipset it says "Atheros AR5481"
  Under driver it says "ath9k - [phy0]"
  
  I'm not to knowledgeable in this but isnt ath9k for chipsets that are ar9xxx not ar5xxx its ath5 for that?
  
  If it is then please tell me how I could switch it out for the correct driver and if not WHAT IS THE PROBLEM!
  
  anyway thanks in advance!
