After upgrading to 6.1, I have been unable to maintain an internet connection for more than a few seconds at a time.
The machine in question uses an Atheros AR9281 for a wifi connection. All other machines on that wifi network have no problems. The Atheros card worked perfectly yesterday. Pinging the machine over a long period of time gives about 40% packet loss. Trying to access the internet in any way often seems to work for a few seconds, then hangs. It may work in short spurts over the next couple of minutes before hanging for good. I have monitored this with tcpdump and noticed no tcp packets sent when the connection is hung. What could be happening and how can I fix this? Sincerely, Colton Lewis
