This sounds like a lot of work to get a driver. How can you get
build-essential or a driver without either a working wired or wireless
connection? I have never heard of this situation with Ubuntu (only Debian
with its stripped kernel).
I think that something else is wrong because wired works OTB in Ubuntu in
just about every case and Atheros is fairly common and should be supported
in the kernel. If it was me then I would try the live disk again. Try a web
browser in both wired and wireless networking. If the connection works then
it should work when installed and something went amiss in the installation.
Then I would do a fresh install. I would also consider using the newer
Ubuntu 12.10 or Mint 14 unless you need LTS.
