Edit the file
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
and add this
blacklist acer-wmi
or you might have to do the following:
sudo modprobe -rfv ath9k
sudo modprobe -v ath9k nohwcrypt=1
If that works you can make it permanent:
/etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
Add the following line:
options ath9k nohwcrypt=1
Reboot.
