Network card fades away

I installed Arch on Pentium 2 machine, which already has running LXbuntu 9.04 (working very well).

The problem I have is that in fully-updated Arch, the network connections seems to fade-away after few minutes since boot.
Pings and transfers work, then they drop to 0 even though WiFi (atheros-based) is still connected. 

No other symptoms, except one time I got out of X and into the console, and saw something like "unable to warm-reset WIFI chip" or something similar.
