I just realised that when I tested the jaunty kernel I didn't upgrade linux-restricted-modules, so I was only testing ath_pci. To clarify:
With 2.6.28-6 kernel and ath5k module, I see the slow bandwidth and high pings noted above. It might be something to do with this error in the logs "ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration timeout (2437MHz)"
With 2.6.28-6 kernel and ath_pci module from linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-6, I still see the slow association (timeout/blacklist) bug noted above "ath0: link timed out."
