Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-
I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 (64-bit edition) and my wireless connection takes ages to connect and sometimes fails to connect at all, then when you first go to use the internet the connection drops and then re-establishes. My wireless card uses the ath9k driver and up until recently it had been very reliable. Once the connection re-establishes it stays up fine.
I'm using Network Manager 0.7.0.100 and kernel 2.6.28-13

I'm using Asus K50IN notebook pc. Ubuntu 9.04 is running. Wireless signal strength looks low and wireless connection drops too often and is not reconnecting automatically. My network connection is quite unstable.
I had installed linux-backports -modules- jaunty package.
