Hello,
hi,
I have submitted bug on Kernel bug tracker and provide info, but it seems
that no one there is interested in this topic. I discovered that since
2.6.38 kernel version there is bug in ath9k driver (using AR9287 chipset).
I've posted some additional info at this adress:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42352
please provide as much info as possible, in which mode you are
operating, how noisy is the environment, distance between STA and AP.
anything specific etc.
i just tried compat-wireless-2012-02-04, distance between STA and AP
at least 5ms, a bit of noisy environment, channel 6 HT40 plus, AES
ping RTT is good only. i may be missing something
The last working version is 2.6.37.6.
if we are very clear about the working one and non-working doing the
following things will make our work very easier
lets say 2.6.37.6 is working fine and 2.6.38 is broken for you
we can work with our wireless-testing tree kernel
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git
then please do git tag

please do try with the latest wireless-testing tree if you can get the
same problem, also please try to check if this issue occurs with some
other AP too.
I can provide more data if anyone is interested.
Cheers,

Hi,
I didn't have access to my notebook for 3 months, so I can't anwser, sorry.
I have tried kernel 3.3.4 and I can still reproduce this error. This
issue occurs with all AP, even if my notebook stands close to AP (1-5
m). I've noticed that wireless card works better with 3.3.4 but there
are times when connection slows down and looks like this:
--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
35 packets transmitted, 26 received, 25% packet loss, time 34017ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.986/6194.909/9659.450/2844.281 ms, pipe 10
It's a ping to gateway, ping to random website looks even worse.
Wireless-testing doesn't solve this problem.
