I was experiencing this bug and can confirm that Seth's kernel fixes the
issue.
Connected to AP within seconds, previously would not connect unless I

minutes.
Thanks Seth.

@Fish R. Cynic: Have you tested the 2.6.38.8 mainline build yet? It does

If that one is still bad I'd suggest trying the following mainline
builds:

Same problem here. Fresh install of Xubuntu 11.04 on an Acer Aspire
3620 laptop with AR2413 wireless (wireless worked flawlessly on previous
versions of Xubuntu). After booting, or when I disable and then re-
enable networking with the Network Manager applet, access points are
only sporadically
Installing the latest madwifi from trunk as suggested above also fixes
the problem for me.
