I can pretty much say, unloading nvidia driver and reloading ath9k module fixes connection. However, in my case it's pretty bad for me... I am heavy gamer, and SLI nvidia cards dusting doing nothing ,well, it's pretty bad. I suspect i may have sort of a trouble with IRQ sharing. Unfortunately after some goggling i didn't find any information how i can force nvidia driver to use some other IRQ channel(which i have available, by turning off many unused devices that use IRQ's). Same question goes here. Is it possible for me to give some load parameters to ath9k module to force it to use another IRQ?(like some other drivers do?) Obviously, there is not much point of asking Nvidia to do it, since those behemoth's won't do anything for sure, since their current driver (i dont use it for that matter)release is pretty banged up... Another question, my Access Point and PCI wifi card are from same manufacturer. AP is set to B,G,N auto mode, but my card only connects to it using G mode, which is not why i bought it in the first place. Why is this happening? i am pretty much only user to network myself 99% of time. i tried to force it to use N mode, it could detect it, but it couldn't connect. Thanks in advance for answer! Dmitri
