[Bug 992519] [NEW] WiFi issue with Atheros WiFi card in laptop...might be a kernel bug or a bug with Ubuntu's new network manager.

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have a Toshiba M55-S139 laptop. It has the Atheros AR5005G Wireless
Network Adapter. In Ubuntu 10.04, the WiFi worked fine, with very little
issues. Now in Ubuntu 12.04, the WiFi connects for about 10 seconds and
then randomly disconnects. I have tried resetting the WiFi settings, and
it has not helped at all.

I don't know if it has something to do with the kernel, but I need an
answer to fix this problem, or I'll have to rollback to Ubuntu 10.04.

I can provide more hardware info it it is needed. My laptop has been
upgraded with maxed out ram....but I believe that is irrelevant in this
matter.
