HI -

I have a Lenovo T60P which which I'm pretty sure has an AR5418 card. In Intrepid, wireless worked great. Upgraded to Jaunty over the weekend, and since then, the wireless performance has been very poor:

1) At high bandwidth usage, wireless will disconnect, but WICD (and N-m tried both) will show it's still connected. But there is no connection. I must press refresh on wicd and manually recconect. This is annoying

2) After prolonged usage (about an hour) the wireless wil just disconnect all together. The only way to reconnect at this point is to log off and log on.

I am running Ath9k.

On the plus side, the little switch on the front now turns the wireless radio on and off, and this never worked before upgrading to Jaunty. Still, I'd rather have wifi running without these errors.
