Thanks for your help.

I am not able to get wireless-tools installed with out internet connection though and it looks like that's what I have to do according to this.

http://wiki.debian.org/ath9k

I found this link on installing wireless-tools without internet but not able to locate package in folder they said it would be....

any help would be greatly appreciated...

I downloaded the wireless-tools deb file and tried installing with gdebi but (once again) required internet connection.
