Hi,

I've been encountering problems also with the ath5k module, for example:

May 16 20:35:26 VIA kernel: [ 291.994295] ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration timeout (2442MHz)
May 16 20:35:27 VIA NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state: completed -> disconnected
May 16 20:35:27 VIA kernel: [ 293.229718] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP (my AP here) - assume out of range
May 16 20:35:28 VIA NetworkManager: <info> (wlan0): supplicant connection state: disconnected -> scanning
May 16 20:35:28 VIA kernel: [ 293.380920] ath5k phy0: failed to wakeup the MAC Chip
May 16 20:35:28 VIA kernel: [ 293.380944] ath5k phy0: can't reset hardware (-5)

Resulting in a disconnect from the AP, and no way to reconnect (except a reboot).

I've been testing with the kernel Manoj supplied ( http://people.ubuntu.com/~manjo/lp341952-jaunty/ ) and the problems seem to have dissapeared.
