There were three random disconnections today from my wireless router,
and I managed to capture a syslog of one of the events via the command:

$ tail -n0 -f /var/log/syslog > /tmp/syslog

The events begin from attempts to connect to my wireless router, to
failure, to unloading and loading the ath9k driver, to successfully
reconnecting to my router.

** Attachment added: "syslog"

** Description changed:

  The D-Link router is the DIR 615.
  
  Previously, I have had no problems connecting to the WPA encrypted
  network I have set up.
  
  Periodically, I will suddenly find my laptop disconnected from the
  wireless network after connection has been established, and have been
  unable to re-establish the connection unless I reboot my laptop.
  
  I have since discovered that the following commands found here:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingNetworkManager
  
  achieve the same purpose.
  
  $ sudo killall NetworkManager
  $ sudo modprobe -r ath9k
  $ sudo modprobe ath9k
  $ sudo NetworkManager
  
  The problem seems to occur at random, so I am unable to reproduce it.
  But I will see whether I can submit a syslog when it happens next time.
  
+ UPDATE 1: I have managed to capture a syslog of the bug. How it can be
+ reproduced is still a mystery.
