Dax Solomon Umaming, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-0501 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/921123 Title: ath5k Atheros AR5007G/AR2417 Chip Connected to Router but No Internet Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I bought a TP-Link WN 350GD PCI Wifi Card with an Atheros chip. It worked well on Natty and Oneiric, until a few weeks ago (probably after a kernel upgrade) when it started acting funky. It's connected to the router alright, but the internet's either disconnected, or very very slow - slower than dialup. Signal strength's good at 77%, authenticated via WPA2-Personal. I'm using both LAN and Wireless connections (LAN's routing is enabled) since LAN connection's for the internal network, while the wireless connection's for the Internet. I can usually scan and ping other devices/workstations connected wirelessly but not anymore. Every now and then, the wifi card would allow me to connect to a website at 15K- 20Kbps, but it'll disconnect soon after. Syslog shows that the card keeps on re-authenticating to the network. Something that does not happen on my TP-Link USB Wifi with Ralink chipset - and they're averaging at 65%-75% signal strength. I've already tried booting to v2.6.39, v3.0.0-15, and v3.2.1 (which I got from kernel.ubuntu.com for precise pangolin) kernels with no success. I've even tried compiling compat-wireless by following the instructions on http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download#Directly_downloading_the_tarball I've also commented out ath_pci from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf all with the same result. I haven't tried using wicd as suggested in the forum since it doesn't support simultaneous connections So is this an ath5k bug? or did my pci wifi card went south. I can't replace it at the moment since this is a company workstation and might take a while to get a replacement card. By the way, the workstation I'm using is a dev workstation and a web/database/ntpd server for our prototypes which means it's on 24/7.
