I have an Atheros Communications Inc. AR9485 (revision 1) and I'm experiencing the same problems under kernel 3.6.7 (fedora 18).

The speed is very low when I walk some meters away from the access point, any network around me appears to have a very low signal level. Sometimes, even if the bit rate is set at 1mbps, the connection just drops and I can't re-associate since the network appears to be out-of-range. I usually have to restart the adapter. I initially thought that someone was jamming me, since I use a 14dbi directional antenna (and my ap is set at 23-26 dBm)
