About 5 days ago I tried going back to ath5k by disabling ath_pci and
the result seemed to be just like before where I would disconnect all
the time but getting less frequent lockups. Then I tried the "linux-
backports-modules-jaunty" (sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-
jaunty) and everything has been great since. The connection is stronger
and more stable than the older ath5k and also ath_pci and I haven't
gotten a lockup yet and that's about 4 days ago whereas ath_pci would do
it at least once a day.

Another thing that seems to be fixed is that ath_pci and the older ath5k
would disconnect quite frequently (though ath5k much more often) and
finally not being able to connect at all. I have not experienced that
yet with this new module.

I'll report back if I experience a lockup.

My wireless chipset is: AR5212
