I'm seeing:

 Capabilities: [140] Virtual Channel <?>

in you're post, leading me to believe, you're

missing a capability?

from what I understand, if you're using

NetworkManager you need to

adduser "name" netdev

then have NetworkManager load

wpa_supplicant at the right time.

under the right circumstances..

A number of updates have gone into the wireless-testing tree.

You can use that tree or compat-wireless to get the latest driver

and check if the problem persists.

Hello Sujith,
It seems wireless-testing tree fixed my ath9k problem, I am quite

happy with it :-)
I am still checking ath9k by using wireless-testing tree with

different ways and let you know If I face more problems.
Thanks for your help.
