This mail is not exactly on topic, but... are you sure about this? I have often the following problem with ath5k (I use the version that comes with 2.6.29-rc3 Linus' kernel): SYS: Feb 2 12:27:42 rukbat kernel: [34404.827566] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-11) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:42 rukbat kernel: [34405.187070] ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2417MHz) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:42 rukbat kernel: [34405.187077] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-11) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:42 rukbat kernel: [34405.532552] ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2422MHz) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:42 rukbat kernel: [34405.532559] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-11) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:43 rukbat kernel: [34405.878839] ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2427MHz) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:43 rukbat kernel: [34405.878846] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-11) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:43 rukbat kernel: [34406.238291] ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2432MHz) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:43 rukbat kernel: [34406.238298] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-11) SYS: Feb 2 12:27:47 rukbat NetworkManager: <info> wlan0: link timed out. ...forever. A load/unload of the module doesn't solve it, as an ifconfig down/up. But a suspend/resume cycle *will* cure it, and on resume I have the link back. So I suppose there is something that the suspend/resume does (maybe at PCI level if not at driver level) and that a normal reset fails to do. Romano FYI, apart this glitch and the non-working wireless LED on this toshiba laptop, ath5k works like a charm.
