[Bug 278190] Re: [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network

[F4RR4R]

I'm having the same problem, I've posted to ubuntuforums.com, but no responses so far:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6092508#post6092508

I have an Asus M70 laptop with an Atheros AR928X Atheros card. It uses
the ATH9K wireless driver. I installed 8.1 RC x64, but check my system
for updates/patches every day.

When I attempt to connect to an access point, I get time out error
messages. I've tried several different access points.
