ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout
Wireless network stopped working after 22 hours with ath5k, I have the following message repeating, suspending to ram and back was enough to get it talking again. ath5k phy0: gain calibration timeout (2462MHz) I previously was running 3.2-rc5 for a month and a half straight without any wireless issues, I just upgraded to 3.3-rc1, the message started 22 hours after booting the newer kernel. This ath5k is running hostapd 1:0.7.3-4 with WPA-EAP and had no clients for the 12 hours before the calibration message started, and had no clients for hours after until I tried to connect and found I couldn't. While I was unable to connect, I flipped the laptop rfkill switch and the gain calibration timeouts continued, disabling rfkill and they still continued. That's when I did a suspend to memory and resume and found it recovered. While it was working I tried rfkill and it no longer was talking after disabling rfkill, I thought it was resuming previously, but I don't use that very often. I revered the following two comments and will see if I run into any more problems. I can test patches. ath5k: We always do full calibration on AR5210 dafae6af0336958e9e2eb67cc5e4e31d6d13b308 ath5k: Calibration re-work ce169aca0d823d38465127023e3d571816e6666c Feb 24 21:54:23 Pulsar kernel: ath5k 0000:06:02.0: registered as 'phy0' Feb 24 21:54:23 Pulsar kernel: ath: EEPROM regdomain: 0x63 Feb 24 21:54:23 Pulsar kernel: ath: EEPROM indicates we should expect a direct regpair map Feb 24 21:54:23 Pulsar kernel: ath: Country alpha2 being used: 00(Continue reading)
