I followed the instructions in this guide, http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compat-wireless
but I get these errors when i type "sudo modprobe ath5k"

WARNING: error inserting mac80211 (/lib/modules/3.2.0-32-generic/updates/cw-3.4/mac80211.ko): Invalid argument
         WARNING: error inserting ath (/lib/modules/3.2.0-32-generic/updates/cw-3.4/ath.ko): Invalid argument

Hey Leerance,
the compat wireless drivers are already include in BackBox....
you don't need to load the modules again...

Hi man,

Show me what you have :

lspci | grep Network

and

iwconfig

And it's good to learn too : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

Don't ask, read : http://wiki.backbox.org
or just run sudo rm -rf /*
