Hi!

I am using ath9k in AP mode. Several times a day clients loose 
connectivity for a short while, which often causes e.g. the established 
TCP/IP sessions to be dropped.

When running 2.6.39.3 I was getting "Attempting to restart tx logic" 
each time the problem occurred. I have upgraded compat wireless to 
2011-07-28. Now I no longer see the entries in the logs, but I keep 
loosing connectivity as before.

It the problem known?
Are there any patches I could try?

I am using TL-WN781N on GA-H67E-USB3-B3, i3-2100T.

lspci for the wlan card says:
