    Ubuntu 16.04 slow wireless,unstable connection Atheros AR9485

    Ubuntu 16.04 slow wireless,unstable connection Atheros AR9485

    I thought I would start a new thread on my particular problem with this wireless card. I have seen other problems but nothing have solved my problem.

    Recently I installed Ubuntu 16.04. Wireless connects and works just fine first minuts. Then it will be sometimes extrem slow. If I turn wireless off and then turn on, it will work some minutes good. It is extrem bad when I turn it back on after sleep mode. It is not a problem with the router or signal, my other devices connect fine. Earlier on this laptop I had Fedora and there was not such problem.

    Thank you in advance for the help.

    What me helped was country preferences:

    Code:
    sudo sed -i "s/REGDOMAIN=/REGDOMAIN=DE/g" /etc/default/crda 
    from https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/w...-ubuntu-16-04/
