Red Five:
That might be with your Atheros card, but do you also have a solution for an Intel Wireless card (could be as simple as doing your atheros fix for iwlwifi)?

Did any of you also check your wired connection with it's config? I doubt that if you put a static address on it, then run dhclient on it, go to hibernate and when you resume, that you have your static address like you entered in the /etc/network/interfaces file. That is what I have too, my wired config isn't reset either. It comes back with whatever IP setting was on it before going to hibernate (in this case, a DHCP address).
This is without the use of Network Manager, because NM applet would request a DHCP address or set the static address once it detects a link on it, but that isn't done if you don't run NM. This was done properly on Hardy. In fact, I think that even if you set your wired to DHCP, it will not request a new IP, which is troublesome if you move to a different subnet.
