2013-11-25 Thread Massimo Cesaro
Update. I had to remove v3.12 trusty kernel. The system becomes quite unusable. 
So far, only v3.11.0-12 is usable for more than  1 hour.
There is something definitely wrong in the rt3290 support.

[Bug 1253997] [NEW] WiFi randomly disconnects

2013-11-22 Thread Massimo Cesaro
Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to 13.10 the WiFi support has been shaky. Frequent connection 
drops and unstable network-manager. Only solution is a reboot, often more than 
one.
I cannot connect to a WiFi network using authentication but WEP (any other 
authentication method gives instantaneous loss of connectivity).

[Bug 1253997] Re: WiFi randomly disconnects

2013-11-22 Thread Massimo Cesaro
Hi, the problem happens either when running on battery or with the power 
supply. I tested with 3 different kernels:
 3.11.0-12-generic
 3.11.0-13-generic
 3.11.0-14-generic

The last one seems the more stable though the disconnect are frequent.
I tested also the latest v3.12 kernel (from 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.12-saucy/ *not* trusty), to no 
avail. Actually, with the 3.12 saucy the system became extremely unstable, with 
crashing of network-manager at boot time and preventing also running the X 
server.
As a stopgap measure, I'm using a small script:

service network-manager stop
rmmod rt2800pci
modprobe rt2800pci
service network-manager start

that somewhat is useful to recover the WiFi support.
Sometimes, when the connection drops and after a variable period of time 2 - 10 
minutes, the wifi support seems to auto-recover, but in that case I'm never 
able to see my access points (they aren't listed in the Unity menu), but I can 
see foreign APs from neighboring offices. I still cannot connect to those APs 
(either because I have no credentials or because the authentication method is 
not WEP).

I will test the 3.12 trusty kernel and report the outcome.

Than you for the support.

Update: the v3.12 trusty kernel is more stable than the others I tested.
WPA authentication still not working; WEP only.

[Bug 1049466] Re: Need support of Ralink RT3290 wifi support

2013-11-19 Thread Massimo Cesaro
My laptop is HP ENVY dv6. Since the upgrade to 13.10 WiFi isn't working 
reliably anymore; today I'm using 3.11.0-14-generic kernel . The only way I can 
manage to work around the WiFi los is by changing the authentication method on 
our AP to WEP(!). Any other authentication is broken.
WiFi signal is weak even at a close range. I tried also #125 and upgrading the 
kernel to 3.12 to no avail.
On 13.04 WiFi was working quite well.
