If Torreydales doesn't work out...

Try posting the output of:
Code:
inxi -Fxz

It should list your hardware - specifically the wireless device, version and driver...

Its probably a RTLXXXX -- once confirmed the correct driver can be pinpointed.. Smile

I would make a SystemBack back up - should testing/trying drivers not yield the preferred results you can easily revert back...

UPDATE --
So not an RTL Smile but Atheros -- Some added info below on possible install routes...
