Hmm. This bug is associated with the upstream bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49201 which was fixed. I can also confirm than on my Zenbook UX31E starting from the 3.10 kernel and also with the 3.11 kernel in Ubuntu 13.10, WLAN is working well in many places where it was completely unusable before.
It's probable there are different kind of problems in different networks (like WPA2 Enterprise), but at least the one identified upstream which broke connections, gave poor connectivity for many was fixed. I'd suggest filing a new bug for the issue you're seeing, since otherwise this bug would become quite confusing to handle with multiple different upstream bugs. If you check https://bugzilla.kernel.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ar9485 , there is for example the bug 62381 to which the new Launchpad bug could be associated if it has a fitting description. I think this bug should remain marked Fix Released unless Guillaume (the bug reporter) finds that the bug he tracked with upstream has really regressed in the 3.11 at some point. It is anyway an interesting data point that you had the bug fixed by using the wireless tree snapshots, but somehow are seeing still a problem with 3.11 where all those fixes should be included. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971809 Title: 168c:0032 Wifi connection unstable -- Atheros AR9485 ath9k To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/971809/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
