Same problem here too on a macbook pro 2.1. Disconnections every 2 minutes and I have to wait 2 minutes again to regain connection. The link is of very poor quality : less than 3mbit/s. (can't even watch my ISP's tv streaming service)
Now I'm connected manually via iwconfig. No disconnections and good speed so it's not a driver problem (ath9k).
Using jaunty alpha6 fresh install and up to date. Network-manager 0.7.1~rc3.1.git4cf2da146-0ubuntu1
