I've experienced the same bug in Debian Etch & Lenny, Arch, Zenwalk,
MEPIS, Mint, Sabayon, and other distros. It's clearly a Madwifi problem.

I've had the same problem. I originally installed Ubuntu 6.10, and the
connection was flaky, going in and out. It's still the same after
upgrading to 7.04. I have updated as of today, and continue to have the
same issues. The signal strength is always reported really low. I was
running Windows
Sorry, shoulda said I was using a Thinkpad T-22.

Found this thread on Google. Not using Ubuntu but rather Fedora Core 6
with newest madwifi.org driver for atheros chipset on a D-Link DWL-G650,
same problem
It doesn't seem to be a problem with Ubuntu, Debian or Fedora. It seems
like it may be a problem with either the Network Manager or Madwifi
Same here @ my X40 Thinkpad with feisty - iirc the problem appears since edgy.

I'm running Kubuntu Edgy on a Thinkpad T40. As above, Network Manager
reports abnormally low signal strength, and drops the connection at odd
intervals. It seems to happen more on some APs than others (possibly
depending on signal strength).
Are there any straighforward workarounds that I can cons
Me and a couple of other guys on the forum are having the same problem.

Hi!
I can confirm both problems listed above.
Hardware (Thinkpad T42):
Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
The problems are:

Having the issue [2] as described below I am also sure that the strength of the
link is deteriorated in Edgy. Sometimes I ge
Small comment.
I am not sure if this is true of the ubuntu package, but I hear the
signal strength in the madwifi driver is "out of 62" as opposed to out
of 100 so when network manager reports 60 that is close to 100 percent.
A patch was proposed to fix this just for the madwifi cards but as far

I have this same problem.
Machine is an IBM T40, tried two separate mini-pci wifi cards (both
atheros) one 802.11a/b and one a/g. Even when I get right next to the
router, I get around 60 percent signal whereas another computer acorss
the room gets 92 percent or higher.
Tried with 2 routers, WRT5
