<PRE>Le 2012-04-17 14:28, Marc Par&#233; a &#233;crit :

&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Just letting people know of the fix for this unit.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The laptop's owner returned it so that I could work on a possible fix to
</I>&gt;<i> the wifi connection. After some testing and trouble shooting, I deleted
</I>&gt;<i> the NetworkManager through the MCC which allowed a more reliable
</I>&gt;<i> connection and I also created this file in etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
</I>&gt;<i> with the line &quot;options ath9k nohwcrypt=1&quot; which for some unknown reason
</I>&gt;<i> made for an even more solid connection &lt;-- I found this recommendation
</I>&gt;<i> on a thread somewhere but lost the location.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The laptop now connects to the internet and does not turn itself out,
</I>&gt;<i> and, it no longer cuts in and out randomly.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Cheers,
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Marc

Just wanted to add that I noticed this thread on the dev list discussing 
this problem. It looks like it will be fixed in the next kernel update.
