Found a solution prescribed by a friend. Installed wicd through the
synaptic package manager in place of the default network manager. Can't
explain why, but my network performance is a lot better.

wifi will drop out at ramdomly, I am using a Toshiba NB205 with ubuntu 9.1
Looks like I was a little too fast. The problem still persists, although
it's not as bad as before. The connection still drops out frequently,
but comes back after around 30-60 seconds. I'm not sure what is causing
this, but it's definitively one of the most annoying problems I've had
with Ubuntu
That fixed it, thanks.

says installing a backport would help: Wireless (Atheros AR9285) works out of
the box, but connection is flaky. To fix, open a terminal and type
I am on a Samsung NC130 anynet netbook which also uses the Atheros
AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express). I have similar problems
with WiFi dropping out randomly. I am occasionally able to reconnect,
but usually only a reboot fixes the issue.

Hi Tim,
I have found some information on the backports, however my time schedule
does not permit me from working on the project right now, I will get back to
the project on Friday when I have some time. Thank you for the lead, and I
will let you know from there. Thanks again.

Jole - have you tried installing linux-backports-modules-generic? It
contains the 2.6.32 kernel version of the wireless stack.
