Szabolcs SZŐKE, if the problem is reproducible in Raring, you would not
have to file a new bug report at this point.

Despite this, could you please fill in the missing information following

Title:
  168c:002b Atheros AR9285 Wireless on Ubuntu 12.10 is slow, unstable
  and has a weak signal.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  There is 3 room in my flat:
  room0: here is my AP
  room1: there is one wall between room0 and room1
  room2: there is two wall between room0 and room2

  If i use my new Lenovo G580 (Atheros 9285) with Windows 8  or my old
  notebook (HP NX6310 (Broadcom wifi) with Kubuntu 8.04 ) the signal is
  stable in every room.

  If i use my new Lenovo G580 with Ubuntu 12.10:
  room0: no problem good signal
  room1: poor signal, signal lost very frequantly
  room2: no signal

  I probe the kernel from http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-kernel-
  team/ppa/ubuntu too. But the problem still exist.
