Summary: ath9k drops connection after 2 to 3 minutes connected
Product: Networking
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.28
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Priority: P1
Component: Wireless
AssignedTo: networking_wireless at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: levi at eneservices.com
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.28
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.28

Hardware Environment: asus m70vm-x1 laptop
Software Environment: gnome, firefox, thunderbird, eclipse, ssh tunnels, eio
Problem Description:
This new years, I compiled the linux kernel from source, hoping that the fixes
on the ath9k would fix a dropping issue, that I was having in 2.6.27 which
would only drop my connection if I left my laptop on over night, which wasn't a
big issue. Anyway, the problem I am having now, is that when I get onto my
system, it usually drops my connection after 2 to 3 minutes. I restart the
connection /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 restart, then I get a connection to only be
dropped 2 to 3 minutes again. I end up rebooting into the 2.6.27 kernel since
it is much stabler. I also notice alot more missing keystrokes on the 2.6.28
kernel, this might be unrelated.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Log on, and wait for it to drop connection. Or, just log on and restart by
typing: /etc/init.d/net.wlan restart on a command line.
