I have today run Update manager and its now working fine.  I didn't
notice if this updated my kernal but it may have done.

Does the following output make it clear?

Title:
  Atheros AR9462: Wifi Band N - WPA Does Not work, No security OK

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have a dual band router. On the a/g frequency (2.472 GHz) everything
  works fine but on the b/n frequency (5.18) GHz I cant connect if I set
  up WPA security. It works if I leave the network unsecured but not WPA
  security. WPA security works fine on the a/g frequency.

  I want to use the b/n range as I have so many competing Wifi signals nearby 
(a/g range) I often lose connection.
  On the b/n range Its never drops but I have no security.
  Any suggestions??
