Most of the time iw does not get scan results, but even when it does connecting to the AP isn't always successful. The tester did note that he doesn't seem to have any trouble if his machine is within a few feet of his AP. Let me know if you'd like something else tested. I noticed that bugzilla #31922 (ath5k: Decreased throughput in IBSS or 802.11n mode) is also fixed by reverting 8aec7af9. It seems like the synth-only channel changes are resulting in poor connection quality. Maybe that patch needs to be reverted?
