That aforementioned bug is not present in the following driver.
AR5xxx/AR9xxx series updated to {DriverVer = 04/23/2012, 10.0.0.54} WHQL for XP & XP64
from AsRock, here --> ftp://174.142.97.10/drivers/all/WLan/WL … .0.54).zip
Edit: & Toshiba --> http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content … 85100B.exe {driver x=y}

Note: - Utility included in the AsRock package (may auto-connect to unencrypted WiFi nets)
- many HWID's added
- devices are now referenced as "Qualcomm Atheros Wireless Network Adapter"s.

And the version numerology plot thickens...

AR5xxx/AR9xxx series driver updated to {DriverVer = 03/21/2012, 9.2.0.496} WHQL'ed for XP.
here --> ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp57001-57500/sp57138.exe
readme --> ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp57001-57500/sp57138.html

This driver (and the previous version, maybe earlier) have the same bug. This should only effect models that make use of the 'customer1GreenTx.reg' registry settings. If you have this setting available to you, try disabling "GreenTx" in the Advanced Settings tab in Device Manager if experiencing connection issues.

[customer1GreenTx.reg]
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx,                ParamDesc,                      0,        %GreenTx%
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx,                Base,                           0,        "10"
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx,                default,                        0,        "0"
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx,                type,                           0,        "enum"
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx\enum,           "0",                            0,        %GreenTxEnableOff%
HKR, Ndi\params\GreenTx\enum,           "15",                            0,        %GreenTxEnableOn%

That last line was updated in v10.0.0.42 non-WHQL (mentioned in the previous post.) to have a value of "1", not "15". Despite having an earlier date than this driver (v9.2.0.496), v10.0.0.45 has many additional HWID's.

Edit: {DriverVer = 04/12/2012, 10.0.0.51} non-WHQL for XP & XP64 is available
here --> http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content … 85100B.exe
One must extract them from the setup files, though. Noted for anecdotal reasons.

*** note: these driver's Security Catalogs are entirely invalid. I mention them for anecdotal reasons ONLY, not for inclusion in DP. Additionally, they must be extracted from their installers, first.

Here we go, again! DriverVer = 12/12/2011, v9.2.0.470 WHQL (including utility) is available here
--> http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/conte … .0.470.ZIP
Undorked here --> Edit:*** updated below ***

Just beware that if you install the utility & allow it to manage your connections, that it will likely try to connect to any available unsecured network.

I find myself unsatisfied with the Atheros WiFi Utility. I've seen it auto-connect to unencrypted wifi networks, even though i haven't selected a network. I don't know if this is changeable, maybe someone else can offer more insight.
Some people may find this behavior desirable, yet I don't. Just a 'heads-up' to those that agree.

It would appear that the acquisition by qualcomm is now complete. http://www.qca.qualcomm.com/
