My Asus eee 1000HG computer has also a wireless ethernet controller from
Atheros Communications Inc. Ubuntu v9.04 (2.6.28-13-generic) and the
wireless controller detects all available network, but can't connect to
anyone of them. The first green bulb is lit during connection attempts,
but after a while it says disconnected. The second bulb is never lit.

The connection attempts fail on all sorts of encryptions (i.e. public
open networks)

It works when I use an external wireless usb controller from Level One
(ZyDAS), but it would be better to have the wireless onboard network to
work.

Doesn't work:
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg 
Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)


Works:
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0ace:1215 ZyDAS WLA-54L WiFi


Linux ubuntu 2.6.28-13-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 30 19:49:51 UTC 2009 i686
