Since last week I've tested a few things that do seem to improve connection 
quality and range :
- switching to WPA2 (TKIP) instead of WPA
- switching to a channel with a greater number (from 4 to 11)
- disabling ANI
- disabling power management

I've added in /etc/pm/power.d/wireless :
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani
/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 power off

It helps a lot, yet  it is not perfect.
I've submitted it all upstream.
