Install the dependencies required to compile the driver:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-generic linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential dkms
Go here and download the newest driver to your computer then place the file on your desktop and right click and extract here.
Then compile the driver using the directions below.
cd  Desktop/backports-3.16-1
make defconfig-ath5k
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe -rv ath5k

sudo make install
sudo modprobe -rv ath5k
