I can confirm that installing the backports significantly increases the speed and reliability of the wireless card on my eeepc 1005ha, with Karmic 9.10 Netbook Remix (UNR).
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-karmic-generic I installed the above package, restarted the netbook and saw an increase from 35% signal strength to 65%. The wireless connection survives multiple sleep/wake-up cycles. -- ath9k disassociates/reassociates a lot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414560 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
