If it's just unplug/replug, then you're sort of screwed.. Atheros is aware of this problem, but so far: no fix. Also AR9170 is being replaced by AR9271 + next gen, so chances are you wasted your money on a overpriced product. see: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15591 perhaps thy can help you ;) i sold the stick... christian ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #15591 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15591 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- ar9170usb wifi module crash + instabile connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
