Description:Latest kernel version 2.6.36-1 and my atheros based card Dlink DWA-160A (ar9170usb) have a little problems with connection. iwconfig appeared to show 300Mb/s-1Mb/s speed. As what i have read about the driver ar9170usb doesn't yet support 802.11n ? But if there is upgrade its not working right for me. My connection is very unstable and slow due. Connection speed to router and so forth is around 1kb/s - 27kb/s ping is between 200 - 10000. Problem appears to be greater during the load of network connection.
Problem disappeared while dropped kernel to verion 2.6.35.7-1. Dmesg is clear of errors.
This task depends upon
