** Summary changed:
- Acer Aspire ONE, Atheros AR242x frequent connection interruptions when more
than light traffic; madwifi works
+ Acer Aspire ONE, Atheros AR5001 (168c:001c) frequently causes all AP clients
to disassociate
** Description changed:
Hi,
I installed the jaunty "netbook remix" on my new Acer Aspire ONE. I
noticed that my wifi connection was unstable to the point that even apt-
get would sometimes fail to download some packages. Reported signal
levels were around 40% in a room where a Lenovo T61 with an Intel wifi
adapter was reporting 70+%. Playing media from an nfs share was
impossible; the connection would start going away after 2-3 minutes.
Even lengthy terminal output in an ssh session was enough to cause the
- connection to be dropped for a few seconds. The kernel log contained
- lines like "ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo", but I read that these
- messages were benign. Additionally, the following was logged:
+ connection to be dropped for a few seconds. Significant upstream traffic
+ kills the connection almost instantly, even when the rate is limited to
+ 1Mbps. The kernel log contained lines like "ath5k phy0: unsupported
+ jumbo", but I read that these messages were benign. Additionally, the
+ following was logged:

- I don't know how much of this was caused by NetworkManager's activity.

I upgraded to karmic, but had the same problem with the ath5k driver in
the 2.6.30-2 kernel that ships with it.
In order to rule out a hardware defect, I compiled madwifi HEAD (r4020)
and tried with that, and so far the connection seems to be stable
(although reported signal levels are still pretty low). This leads me to
believe that this is a bug in the ath5k driver, which is why I'm filing
the report against linux-image-generic.
+
+ When the ath5k card disconnects as shown above, my other notebook, a
+ Thinkpad with an iwlagn card, is also disconnected; it's almost as if
+ the ath5k driver would confuse the AP or other wireless clients in range
+ so much that they can't re-associate for up to a minute.
I only tested with a single Micronet AP, with WPA-PSK.
