try
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
it will open an empty window , copy paste the following line in there

options ath9k nohwcrypt=1

Then save the document and reboot your system .

Thank you

Another possibility here is that your router and another nearby router are fighting against each other and the interference is causing the connection to drop.

To check this open a terminal and run the command

sudo iwlist scan

Check the channel numbers if someone is on the same channel as you or an adjacent channel that could be the problem.

The channel is set by the router. There is usually a web page to change it, instructions will have come with your router

Hi,

Thanks for this but it did not work. I am still getting kicked out of
the wireless after a few minutes. I have tried a few other machines at
home both lining Ubuntu 12.04 (one a macbook pro and other a HP) but
they are not affected.

The odd thing is that the ethernet connection and mobile connections are
not affected.

Any other ideas?

Please try the workaround solution procedure here:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=137643

I suggest following this compat-wireless driver installation procedure instead:

http://www.jfdesignnet.com/?p=2162

Please make sure to reboot your PC after those changes.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Njogu Morgan for more information if necessary.
