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 point.
With AR9285 / AzureWave AW-NE785 adapters, I cannot reproduce either problem. Testing 64-bit 3.2.0-32-generic, data retries are back within acceptable limits (on par with AR9285, or about an order of magnitude fewer retries than 32-bit 3.2.0-36-generic) but connection drops are as horrible as ever, about once every three minutes or so. Now doing some additional testing with 64-bit versions beyond 3.2.0-32-generic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/945379 Title: 168c:002b Wireless connection randomly drops -- ath9k To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/945379/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
