try:

echo "options ath5k 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath5k.conf

Reboot, is it nicer?

Thanks, but by misfortune it is worse : the effect of this config seems to be totally blacklist ath5k and I lost totally wlan0. I deleted the /etc/modprobe.d/ath5k file created by the command you proposed and recovered a somewhat unsteady wifi.

It largely improved a few months ago by replacing "network-manager" by "network-manager 0.8-0ubuntu3+volanin1" and then upgrading the kernel to 2.6.36-1.7-generic-lucid1 and had been steady during several months.
Then, yesterday a strong instability resumed with deconnexions after a few minutes of normal working, sometimes connexion being recovered only after "sudo service network-manager stop" then "...... start". Maybe an unknown effect of an unknown update ?
Today it's better, maybe the reason should be found outside of my laptop ? In the linksys box ? or in Australia from where internet flows in my current location in New Caledonia and last week Australia was seriously hit by the strongest cyclone they faced in known history ?

Thanks again, I feel it's quite difficult task to have my atheros wifi work on Ubuntu, it's a pity as Ubuntu10.04 is a nice system.

Sounds like a bug, you could always compile the driver:

svn checkout http://svn.madwifi-project.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-dfs/

cd madwifi-dfs
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe ath_pci

echo "blacklist ath5k" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
echo "ath_pci" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules

I already tried to replace ath5k by madwifi in the past without any success then reverted to ath5k, which seems to be a development of madwifi ? I shall stick to this ath5k, which has been working OK for months till two days ago.
Today I upgraded the kernel to Linux 2.6.38-1.27-generic_lucid1 and the WiFi connexion has been steady for 4 hours since that upgrade.
I consider the problem solved - for the moment...
