Title:
  Atheros wireless AR9285 keeps disconnecting

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  lspci
  03:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)

  dmesg log gets filled with the info below. After a random time
  (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours, but mostly minutes), I lose wifi
  connection and the only solution I know is to reboot. It only started
  happening a week ago. I have been running kernel 3.13.0-34-generic but
  downgraded to 3.13.0-27-generic and that seems to have slightly
  reduced the frequency of the issue but I'm not sure. It happens many
  times per day.
