Thanks. Tomasz. This information helped. I will check and reply after upgrading to newer kernel and firmware.

Nah too old, if such support have been made then maybe once and on windows only.

Most probably. Ath9k started to work reliably only recently (a year or so), if you can upgrade all (kernel and firmwar), in addition of wpa_supplicant, this could fix you issue. > > So from both ends Connmand and wpa_cli I get same results for Atheros based > Laptop . Of course yes. Wpa_supplicant is the one that deals with the kernel/driver.
