I don't find mention of the AR9565 chip in either the
ath(4) or
athn(4) manpages, nor in a search the

Is there anything I can do?

Many laptops today offer multiple USB ports, & as long as one is USB2, dedicating it to a USB wireless dongle isn't a world-ending alternative. I have found
urtwn(4) to be quite satisfactory, & Realtek USB2 dongles are cheap too.

Other vendors may be cheaper still.
