Hi Florin, I haven't seen that issue yet, but I do have some more info that may be related. Just finished initial tests on 3.2.0-39-generic and the number of retries are again through the roof (for hard numbers, on an 8 MB file transfer, 325 retries with 3.2.0-32, 2020 retries with 3.2.0-39). But

I spoke too soon. Looking back at my previous posts, I should clarify that we're seeing two symptoms with the AR9462 / AzureWave Device 2110 and ath9k drivers from 32-bit 3.2.0-36-generic (and intermittently onwards): excessive connection drops, and excessive data retries from the wireless access

So, some more weirdness. I was able to get a copy of the shipping Ubuntu image for this demo unit, and it performs significantly better. We're going to do some additional testing and comparison, and there's still a wake from sleep issue as Guest. It's using 3.2.0-32-generic (which I believe I've a

We have a few thousand AR9285 devices in production and are just now moving from 10.04 to 12.04. So far in our testing we aren't seeing any issues, but I noticed that these are all AzureWave AW-NE785 adapters (no Lite-On adapters). But, I have a very fresh demo unit with AR9462 / AzureWave Device

Thanks Jouni. Absolutely. It's been a while since I've done a kernel patch and compile, but I suspect it's like riding a bike. I have not had a "natural" MIC failure yet this morning, but I've also been thinking about the most graceful way to generate it. I suspect with maybe three clients, two

Thanks, Jouni. I see you're correct regarding the countermeasures not being triggered in that log. There are actually two different scenarios that may or may not be related: the MIC failures when multiple stations are associated within a tight window, and the periodic MIC failures when stations ar
