This may not be germane to this issue, but my netbook developed an issue when I installed Maverick 10.10 that I initially thought was related to what I have been seeing on the AcerAspire5100. When I wake the netbook from sleep, it takes about 30 seconds before it even starts scanning for the local access point. It connects reliably, it just waits that many seconds to even start. The netbook did NOT show this behavior under Lucid 10.04 (it scanned and connected as soon as I woke it from sleep).

I have not yet tried to boot Natty on the netbook, but obviously I will be very sensitive to any network issues on it too. I am mentioning it only because it is mysterious too. Also since the netbook has a Broadcom chip I wonder if the actual culprit on the AcerAspire5100 may be something OTHER than ath5k.
