Hi there, I have an AR9285 adapter and got crazy with it. As described by others I also had the following errors irregularly and my wireless-adaper then didn't wake up AFTER resume from suspend and just a reboot could revive it. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid and tried several kernels and backported wireless drivers. I also tried ndiswrapper with several windows-drivers but the same problem occurred again.

However I found a simple WORKAROUND which more or less fixed this issue. Try: sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off Also I disabled in gconf-editor: /apps/gnome-power-manager/general/network_sleep Probably the first command did the trick. It seems to turn off the power management of the adapter what should result in higher power consumption. Nevertheless better then rebooting all the time. Currently I'm running 3.0.0-31-generic on an Asus 1005PE. I hope it won't occur again. Btw, I red somewhere that this has something to do with static electricity and the USB ports (?). But I can't find the link anymore. Any other progress on how to really fix this?
