[Bug 278190] Re: [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network
Richard, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. As well, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream', and comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it. Please let us know your results.

HI - I have a Lenovo T60P which which I'm pretty sure has an AR5418 card. In Intrepid, wireless worked great. Upgraded to Jaunty over the weekend, and since then, the wireless performance has been very poor: 1) At high bandwidth usage, wireless will disconnect, but WICD (and N-m tried both) will show it's still connected. But there is no connection. I must press refresh on wicd and manually recconect. This is annoying 2) After prolonged usage (about an hour) the wireless wil just disconnect all together. The only way to reconnect at this point is to log off and log on. I am running Ath9k. On the plus side, the little switch on the front now turns the wireless radio on and off, and this never worked before upgrading to Jaunty. Still, I'd rather have wifi running without these errors. -- [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278190 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 278190] Re: [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network
I found a solution, here's a copy of my post on the ubuntuforums: Turns out that this has something to do with the Wireless & Bluetooth being on the same chip (or perhaps not, still working on it). In /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/ there are two files that I had to modify in order to make this work: /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/bluetooth /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan They each contain a single boolean value. The bluetooth value contained a 1 and the wlan contained a 0. You cannot modify this values while your system is running, therefore, the solution was to add two lines to my /etc/rc.local file: echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/bluetooth # disable bluetooth echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/wlan # enable wireless As soon as I restarted, it came up with absolutely no problems. Now, it may be that they can both be enabled at the same time, I haven't tested that far yet. -- [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278190 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm having the same problem, I've posted to ubuntuforums.com, but no responses so far: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6092508#post6092508 I have an Asus M70 laptop with an Atheros AR928X Atheros card. It uses the ATH9K wireless driver. I installed 8.1 RC x64, but check my system for updates/patches every day. When I attempt to connect to an access point, I get time out error messages.
