[atheros] Atheros wifi is unstable (ath5k kernel module)

Hello.

After I bring back from death my old laptop (replacing dead HDD), I noticed that wireless connexion is very unstable. After using connexion for about 30 minutes, network is stopped.

I've seen the problem as in bug 18771  : https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18771

Anybody with the same problem ?

I think I have this bug too, always thought it was my router or some wifi hacker
I have a Compaq CQ60 presario 100EM and it uses the ath5k module
