Bug#622971: 2.6.38-5 behaviour
After using it for some days, the issue seems to still be there but manifests
itself in a different way.
Before 38-5 when the disconnection happened, the only way to get it back was
to modprobe -r ath9k, modprobe ath9k and try to reconect, which usually but
not always worked.
With 38-5 the drop of connectivity seems to happen less often (still several
times a day) and it seems to recover itself most times, with no modprobe -r
required.
dmesg shows this:
