I'm also experiencing the same problem with the following hardware
$sudo lspci -v
03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network
Adapter (rev 01)
Subsystem: D-Link System Inc Device 3a70
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at fdcf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [50] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit-
Capabilities: [60] Express Legacy Endpoint, MSI 00
Capabilities: [90] MSI-X: Enable- Count=1 Masked-
Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
Capabilities: [140] Virtual Channel
Kernel driver in use: ath9k
Kernel modules: ath9k
The following workaround originally found here
http://aptosid.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&p=6499 seems
to work for me as a workaround.
create the file /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf and add
options ath9k nohwcrypt=1
Save and reload the module or reboot.
