WIFI connection problem DLINK dwa-160 with ar9170 driver

The installation (10.04LTS) is working properly on the wired NIC. It also
works on XP on the same PC (dual boot) with the same WNIC and NIC.

With Ubuntu and WNIC I cannot reach the router and the web with a ping or a
firefox. But the connection looks connected: I got a valid IP, mask and DNS
information via DHCP.

Pinging the router gives me

PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted

--- 192.168.0.1 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 3023ms


Thank you
