I had that problem in many different situations: during surfing Internet, after I left the PC in pause for a while, during building kernel, close to the router, far from the router. In short in every situation one can use a PC. Which other details may I provide to help you? > can you please check whether you can see the issue in > http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download#Where_to_download_bleeding_edge These are last snapshots for kernel 2.6 or also for kernel 3.1? Since it's complicated for me to work with three different kernels, I'd prefer to focus for the moment on kernel 3.1.6. I've download and built the latest stable compat-wireless 3.2, with kernel 3.1.6 and I've turned off at the boot the power management (with "iwconfig wlan0 power off") and for the moment it seems to work, I've had the pc up for 2 hours without the problem. But of course I need more tests to be sure that this can fix it. >> ath: Chip reset failed >> > ath: Unable to reset channel (2467 MHz), reset status -22 > not sure 2467 mhz is valid I attached here the last dmesg after the error, in effect I find here just 2422 mhz. I can see that my dmesg is pretty identical to Liao Haohui one, posted yesterday. -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
