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 <replace-with-bug-number> 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. Thanks in advance. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 945379 168c:002b Wireless connection randomly drops -- ath9k ** No longer affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) ** No longer affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Intrepid) ** No longer affects: network-manager (Ubuntu Jaunty) ** No longer affects: linux (Ubuntu Jaunty) ** Attachment removed: "dmesg | grep wlan0" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/278190/+attachment/536507/+files/dmesg.txt ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: mactel-support Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mactel Support, which is the registrant for Mactel Support. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278190 Title: [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network Status in The Linux Kernel: Fix Released Status in Mactel Support: Invalid Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux” source package in Intrepid: Fix Released Bug description: The wireless network can be seen, and occasionally connects after a cold boot. Most of the time network-manager complains that the WEP/WPA key is not correct, pops up a dialogue repeatedly. It may or may not obtain a DHCP lease. However, no data gets transmitted. Scenario 1: (See comment by Dennis Heinson for another scenario) Beta release updated 4/10/08 on a gen 2 MacBook Pro (atheros wifi) connecting to a BT home hub with WEP 64 bit encryption (configuration as shipped). No previous problems with Kubuntu 7.10 and the same hardware using self-compiled drivers.
