The computer came with the IWN adapter and an antenna and was marketed as an 
access point. If the deficiency is in the driver, I'd like to help fix it.

# ifconfig wlan0 list caps
drivercaps=2581e201<STA,PMGT,TXPMGT,SHSLOT,SHPREAMBLE,MONITOR,WPA1,WPA2,WME,BGSCAN>
htcaps=5006e<CHWIDTH40,SHORTGI20,SHORTGI40>
