Done (stable/13 from yesterday).
Now it seems to work, at least in a basic case... with time I'll see 
about stability, connecting to other access points, integrating it in 
LAGG with a wired interface, ecc...

FYI:

P.S.
I guess this card should be able to reach higher speeds... I take it 
that the driver currently can't.
Fine for me.
Of course I'll be happy if it will in the future, but at least it works 
and it's enough.
