[Wifi] One more unstable wifi thread

I got a reason 6/ reason 3 wifi disconnects problem, and i don't know suggetsion to fix it. There are alot of threads and noone says how fix this annoyng thing. And yeah, win7 goes good with it.
Sometimes it goes good alot of hours, sometimes drops 5 times row at 1 hour, and makes using wifi painfull.

Re: [Wifi] One more unstable wifi thread

Hi,

Do you encounter this issue on a fresh install ? Did it happen before when you were using a 3.5 or previous kernel ?

You may want to take a look at my thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=155947
