I have the unstable connection problem with an ar928x wireless card, using the ath9k driver. The card is in a brand new Dell Inspiron 1440.
I first noticed the problem in a standard 9.04 installation, where the connection would stop working for a 30s-1 minute period. NetworkManager wouldn't report any problems, but dmesg showed wlan0 deauthenticating and doing a "direct probe" to the AP. After a while, the log becomes filled with this loop of deauth and re-association with the AP. Installing linux-backports-modules-jaunty had no effect. I am now trying again in 9.10 Alpha 5, with linux-backports-modules- karmic installed. I have the same problem, and I would even say it is worse. Every 30 seconds I am disconnected, although the signal strength remains full and NetworkManager reports no problems. The output of dmesg looks the same as before. I will add the various logs to this bug as soon as I can find a network cable to get that laptop on the network. -- UNR Ath9K unstable connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
