eth0 no wireless extensions.

Ndiswrapper -l says the driver is installed but doesn't say "hardware present." though as we can clearly see you have an Atheros based device from lspci. I might be wrong, but my first inclination would be to believe the driver you have installed is not the one that works with your particular hardware. Let's also see:
If you can't get this solved, the Madwifi driver for Atheros based cards is very easy to install and gives rock solid performance.

"Short, but Brilliant!" - My friend.

Thanks! I'll see if this works.

Thanks! a combination of your tutorial and the ndiswrapper FAQ worked.
I'm typing this over wifi.

Dapper Dan

Great! It's always satisfying to hear someone got their hardware working under Linux.
