I realized the ath5k module was interfering with ath_pci. I had to edit the /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi file by commenting out the ath5k line and uncommenting the ath_hal and ath_pci lines:
## ath5k (mac80211) #blacklist ath5k ## madwifi (non-free) blacklist ath_hal blacklist ath_pci #blacklist ath_rate_amrr #blacklist ath_rate_onoe #blacklist ath_rate_sample blacklist wlan #blacklist wlan_acl #blacklist wlan_ccmp #blacklist wlan_scan_ap #blacklist wlan_scan_sta #blacklist wlan_tkip #blacklist wlan_wep #blacklist wlan_xauth That SOLVED the issue to me. -- AR5006EG/AR242x/AR2423 wireless not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286861 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
