I was experiencing this bug and can confirm that Seth's kernel fixes the issue.
Connected to AP within seconds, previously would not connect unless I sat the laptop on top of the AP, and even then it was taking a good few minutes. Thanks Seth. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775104 Title: Kernel 2.6.38.8: ath5k driver wireless signal strength critically weak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/775104/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
