I discovered that since 2.6.38 kernel version there is bug in ath9k driver (using AR9287 chipset). I've posted some additional info at this adress: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42352 The last working version is 2.6.37.6. I can provide more data if anyone is interested.

I have tried kernel 3.3.4 and I can still reproduce this error. This issue occurs with all AP, even if my notebook stands close to AP (1-5 m). I've noticed that wireless card works better with 3.3.4 but there are times when connection slows down and looks like this: --- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics --- 35 packets transmitted, 26 received, 25% packet loss, time 34017ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.986/6194.909/9659.450/2844.281 ms, pipe 10 It's a ping to gateway, ping to random website looks even worse. Wireless-testing doesn't solve this problem. lspci -v 03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc.
