I've recently been asked to upgrade the hard drive in a Toshiba Satellite A100-570 and also to reinstall Windows, I have the computer running but the wireless card isn't detected at all by windows, it doesn't appear within the device manager and even though the device hadn't been detected by windows I proceeded to installing the drivers from the Toshiba website, this however hasn't work.
In the device manager there is 1 unknown device "Ethernet Controller", I'm under the assumption that this was a LAN card not a WLAN card, I've installed the LAN drivers and hard wiring the internet works.
I also booted into the Ubuntu live cd and it detects the Atheros card and alerts me about using proprietory drivers I accepted but cannot connect to any networks.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the WLAN card to be registered within Windows XP.

I've now been able to connect to an unsecured network within Ubuntu however it wouldn't connect to my security enabled network.

Trolls don't even try nowadays.
You'll need a driver.
Find out what chip the Wlan is based on.
I've tried doing this, I don't have the number to hand now but the numbers on the card did not find any drivers. I will post the number tomorrow, however I couldn't find the drivers, unless I'm looking in the wrong place.
