Yes, on some laptops wireless card connected really weird way. And while on 
Windows everything worked fine, on Linux signal was too weak, and some people 
thinking it is driver issue. 
I had this issue with madwifi before, and choosing antenna manually helped. 
But it was long time ago, no idea if it's useful now in ath5k. But in custom 
boards like Routerboard it is very useful.
