I have previously downloaded (starting at comment #52) compat- wireless-2010-09-12 from http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat- wireless-2.6/ and reported success with my ath9k NIC and several others have done also with the same result.
What I have noticed since is that while this is working fine, my Samsung R580 laptop has been on A/C power. As soon as I run from battery (and therefore some power-saving comes into action), I get the same result loss of connectivity as I had before I thought it was "fixed". I am now trying compat-wireless-2010-11-13.tar.bz2 and I will run from battery instead of A/C to see what happens. Stay tuned. -- ath9k driver not working properly with AR9285 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518818 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
