1. Bios: Updated to 12.01. No change, disconnects still occur.

2. Wireless Router:
    * Billion BiPAC 7402VGP.
    * Firmware version: 5.74d.
    * WPA2-PSK
    * MAC filtering and QoS: none (default settings).
    * Beacon Interval: ?
    * FIrewall: Disabled.

3. Wireless: 802.11g.

4. Android phones, tablet and Windows laptop work with my wireless AP
fine as far as I can tell (can't access their logs).

5. Distance to AP: 3m.

6. I don't have another AP to test with.

7. This is not a regression. This bug happens with 12.04 and 12.10.
Plus with the Ubuntu-built mainline kernels that I tested see bug
messages).

8. Compat-wireless: I installed
linux-backports-modules-cw-3.4-3.2.0-32-generic:amd64. Disconnects
still occur. But this is not surprising given that I have also tested
the latest mainline kernels.

9. This bug occurs with mainline Ubuntu kernel 3.6.0.

10. ndiswrapper: too hard.

11. This is an Atheros chip, not Broadcom or Realtek.

Cheers,
Justin.
