Instale este pacote, dependendo da versão do ubuntu que você possa ter:

12.04 (precise pangolin): https://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/experimental/+files/ar5523-source_0%7Eslh.12%7Eppap1_all.deb

11.10 (oneiric ocelot): https://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/experimental/+files/ar5523-source_0%7Eslh.12%7Eppao1_all.deb

11.04 (natty narwhal): https://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/experimental/+files/ar5523-source_0%7Eslh.12%7Eppan1_all.deb

Execute os seguintes comandos, copie e cole um por um:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic module-assistant
sudo m-a a-i ar5523-source
wget http://verein.lst.de/~hch/ar5523.tgz
tar xvf ar5523.tgz ar5523/uath-ar5523.bin --strip 1
sudo mv uath-ar5523.bin /lib/firmware

    

Answer 2

Por favor, abra um terminal e faça:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential subversion quilt deb-helper module-assistant
svn co svn://svn.berlios.de/fullstory/ar5523/trunk/ ar5523
wget http://verein.lst.de/~hch/ar5523.tgz
tar xf ar5523.tgz ar5523/uath-ar5523.bin --strip 1
cd ar5523
export QUILT_PATCHES="debian/patches"
quilt delete kcompat-3.5 && quilt delete kcompat-2.6.34
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
sudo su
dpkg -i ../ar5523-source*deb
m-a a-i ar5523

Agora instale o firmware:

mv ../uath-ar5523.bin /lib/firmware
modprobe ar5523
exit

Seu wireless agora deve estar funcionando.
