I know chili555 would suggest using 20Mhz instead of 40 if you have that option on the wireless routerįirst, check the settings in the router. I have a Lenovo with a AR9485 but I don't have any close neighbors with wifi and your channel and regulatory settings are the only issues I saw. I'm wondering now if I could possibly have anything to do with my wireless mouse, which also operates on 2.4GHz. I've also tried upgrading my kernel to Linux 4.0 but the problem persists.Įxact chip: 02:00.0 Network controller : Qualcomm Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)ĭriver: $ ls /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/driver/module/driversĬfg80211 540672 4 ath,ath9k_common,ath9k,mac80211 I have tried passing the nohwcrypt=1 to the driver, but that made it impossible to connect to any AP, it just infinity attempted to connect. Is there anything I can do to make the connection more stable? I've been able to get it working again by simply disconnecting from my wireless AP and then reconnecting, but this is annoying.

The indicator in the top panel will still say we are connected but the machine has no internet connectivity whatsoever. So far it has been working ok except this one issue: Randomly (as far as I can tell) it will completely lose the internet connection. I recently bought a new computer that has an Atheros AR9485 wireless NIC.
