@Miroslav,

It may be one of several issues. So if you are willing, we can tease
these out with some sanity checks.  I've just read an ASPM document from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg462958.aspx  and it
states:

"If the BIOS indicates that the platform does not properly support ASPM,
the operating system disables ASPM. This can be conveyed in the ACPI
fixed ACPI description table (FADT) table IAPC_BOOT_ARCH flags by
setting the PCIe ASPM Controls bit to 1."

To sanity check this, can you send me a copy of your ACPI tables using:

sudo acpidump > acpidump.txt

..and I will see what the IAPC_BOOT_ARCH flag is configured to.

Incidentally, the BIOS default basically refers to how the firmware
configured the PCI config regions for your PCI-e devices - it may be
that theses are mis-configured and causes the wifi card to misbehave
when the kernel tries to go into a power saving state and the H/W does
not support it correctly. It's hard to tell w/o some further
investigation.
