WIFI connection problem DLINK dwa-160 with ar9170 driver

Sat Apr 2 04:29:46 UTC 2011

Hi,

Somebody have a hint for my connection problem with a DLINK dwa-160 with
ar9170 driver

With a dualboot on the same PC on XP=SP3 it works fine but on 10.04LTS it
connects on wlan1 but I cannot reach the network


If I do restart the deamon

> service networking restart

I get

restart: Unknown instance:

and a ping gives me

> ping 192.168.0.1
