Title:
  WiFi issue with Atheros WiFi card in laptop...might be a kernel bug or
  a bug with Ubuntu's new network manager.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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.
