Comment 32 for bug 278190

This bug is indeed present in Jaunty and affects AR5008 as well as AR5418.

I've had far better luck connecting to WEP WAPs using Wicd (over the shoddy performance attributed to n-m)

Wicd gets me connected to my preferred WAPs from startup -- but I'm unable to reconnect upon resume (after suspend). Prabhanjan Kambadur reports the same problem in this very thread. I'll take it to a new report if that would be appropriate.

0b:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
-Ubuntu Jaunty on MacbookPro 3,1 "Santa Rosa" (dual-boot)
-ath9k is in use

Please let me know what else I can provide in the way of details.
