Jaunty Regression: ath5k with AR5007 no longer connecting in Jaunty after alpha 5

[bubba_169]

Although in Alpha 5 the connection works perfectly fine, in the updates applied a few days after there must have been a regression in the ath5k driver which stops the AR5007 wireless card from connecting. When I attempt to connect, I get the one green light and a spinning symbol in the tray icon however it stays at this stage for about 30 seconds and then disconnects itself. Dmesg shows that the connection timed out.

I now have the connection working using ndiswrapper and the net5211 drivers for Windows so Im guessing this means its a driver problem - usually I use the ath5k driver.
