updating atheros network card without paying $30

i'm trying to update my atheros network card on my t61 (the upgrade line on the device manager says i'm using the most recent driver, but it's not, it's two years old and there's a much newer one out). but the only way i can figure out to get it done is to pay $30 to one of those driver update things, like driver detective.....is there a way to do for free?

Try this one: Atheros & Zidas drivers

It is slow/down right now but try later.


BTW it is french but it is easy to navigate.

Good luck
