I've backported the patch from https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49201 to precise. It can be applied to the source of 3.5.0-34-generic (cd /usr/src && sudo apt-get source linux-image-3.5.0-34-generic) after entering drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k directory.
I recompiled ath9k modules using this guide: http://www.codewhirl.com/2012/04/how-to-compile-a-single-module-in- ubuntu-linux/. Now the signal strength is the same as on other notebooks and it does not disconnect. ** Patch added: "patch to apply in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k dir" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1160188/+attachment/3705063/+files/ath9k.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1160188 Title: ATH9K wireless signal weak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1160188/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
