I use latest -git of wireless-testing, and AR2425.
Thanks to hard work of ath5k developers, it works better and better.
Yet phy seems to die when loaded with traffic, but its reset brings is
back alive. ath5k does a reset every 10 seconds.
If you use WPA, then you might have bigger problems, I mean, during the
period when phy is dead, AP might ask for group rekey, but ath5k won't
hear this, and continue using old keys. This causes much longer delays,
and sometimes reconnect cycles you see.
