Ubuntu: How to build and install Linksys AE1000 Wireless-N linux driver on Ubuntu 11.10

Cisco Linksys AE1000 provides high performance wireless network connectivity for any desktop or laptop computer. The range and data transfer rate achieved by its Wi-Fi Certified N technology rival that of a wired network without the inconvenience and complexity of being tethered. At home or in an office environment, the device makes network connectivity simple and flexible. At public hot spots like cafés or hotels, making an internet connection is secure and fast.
