I found a fix. It deals with the drivers for various wireless hardware.

It dropped once and after re-rebooting, it seems to work fine. It appears the problem is that the computer supplied driver for wifi and the OEM driver differ and that may possibly be the problem. This is a difficult bug to find and fix.

I have tested the backported driver and for about one week of using the 802.11N connection, it seems to have been working better. It disconnected once or twice, but I could connect, which I could not do before this driver. I cannot bet it is a perfect test, as I could only use N connection for more than one week, but before this driver, it was very common (maybe more than once daily) that I had to restart the router, as it only worked when resetting the router. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/945379 Title: 168c:002b Wireless connection randomly drops -- ath9k To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/945379/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sujith Manoharan, my apologies as I did not realize you were an upstream maintainer. Despite this, not intending to patronize you, but as previously documented in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/945379/comments/45 , it is requested of users who make "Me too!" comments on WiFi linux (Ubuntu) bug reports on Launchpad to provide all data in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LinuxWireless (which includes requesting a WiFi backports test) on a separate bug report. This helps prevent "dogpiling", as many like to say they have the same problem, but when they make a new report, as you may have experienced, the high majority have different permutations of WiFi chipset, connecting hardware, router, and root cause. If you would prefer a different workflow then that previously documented, please feel free to ping me directly so we can take this discussion off report and work on making the documentation more efficient.

Is there something I can run to help you in your quest for fixing this? It is not very nice to not be able to use the wifi connection, especially that I come from Windows where I did not find anything like this... What if I used some public router and could not restart it when I need it, what would I do then? During time I reported this bug until I quit doing it, nothing really changed until your tests.

[Bug 945379] Re: 168c:002b Wireless connection randomly drops -- ath9k
Hi Florin, I haven't seen that issue yet, but I do have some more info that may be related. Just finished initial tests on 3.2.0-39-generic and the number of retries are again through the roof (for hard numbers, on an 8 MB file transfer, 325 retries with 3.2.0-32, 2020 retries with 3.2.0-39). But, I sat down with the network team to look through the logs during the connection drops with 3.2.0-32 and we're seeing MIC errors again: "The AP 'kn_office_100' received a WPA MIC error on protocol '0' from Station 'dc:85:de:8a:14:0e'. Counter measures have been activated and traffic has been suspended for 60 seconds. - Controller Name: kn_254_17AP" ...which leads back to a bug I'm all too familiar with: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/580753 Florin, it's possible that if you're seeing the same MIC challenge failures that your AP is taking more hostile countermeasures at some point (maybe the nth failure). Especially if you see that other devices remain connected but your AR9285 won't get reconnected until the AP reboots, I'd be tempted to point the finger at the MIC failure.

Just a question: did any of the tests get to the point where it cannot connect to the access point until one restart the router/acces point?

[Bug 945379] Re: 168c:002b Wireless connection randomly drops -- ath9k
I spoke too soon. Looking back at my previous posts, I should clarify that we're seeing two symptoms with the AR9462 / AzureWave Device 2110 and ath9k drivers from 32-bit 3.2.0-36-generic (and intermittently onwards): excessive connection drops, and excessive data retries from the wireless access point. With AR9285 / AzureWave AW-NE785 adapters, I cannot reproduce either problem. Testing 64-bit 3.2.0-32-generic, data retries are back within acceptable limits (on par with AR9285, or about an order of magnitude fewer retries than 32-bit 3.2.0-36-generic) but connection drops are as horrible as ever, about once every three minutes or so.

Jack: you can at least try out the 3.9rc3 kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9-rc3-raring/ (you need to install both linux-image and linux-image-extra before rebooting) and report back.
