[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
@h1repp: I'm one of them and for me it's meant leaving my netbook (eee901) in one room attached to to an ethernet cable. Rather than being the mobile device it was meant to be my netbook is now a terminal. I've also spent the last two nights trying different methods to get it to work: The latest driver (after a few attempts) successfully compiled and I was able to browse the net, after a restart however I reconnected to the network but was unable to browse the net. After this I tried to install the alternative kernel listed above, but it did not change a thing. WPA2 TKIP+AES Personal Encrypted network at home and Professional at Uni so changing the encryption is not a choice. -- [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
Sorry for the late reply, lack of working internet :( I installed the newest (.12) array.org kernel so I'm not sure how I'd test this now. If anyone could let me know how to check what my current version of the driver is and tell me how to uninstall it I'd be glad to test the patch on 2.1.1.0. -- [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
New to Linux but been using Ubuntu on my Netbook as a replacement to Xandros for a couple of months now.When I installed Inrepid I had this problem but it was solved by installing the Array.org Kernel, now I've upgraded to the new release (9.04 Netbook Remix) and the problem is back - I cannot access any wireless networks that use WPA TKIP + AES. I also noticed thanks to Bryan Stephenson that there's a new version (2.1.1.0) of the driver available with the following release notes: [2.1.1.0] 1. Fixed driver would send zero IWEVASSOCREQIE to Native WpaSupplicant. 2. Fixed driver would send non-zero BSSID to Navtive WpaSupplicant when STA disconnecting to AP. I've been reading up for about 6 or 7 hours now and I've noticed a lot of references to WpaSupplicant in bug reports but no real solution and being new to Linux I'm not entirely sure how I would install this driver myself to see if it solves the problem. Has anyone tested this driver or can anyone point me in the right direction to get going myself? Bit disappointed this wasn't fixed as it's a large part of the functionality of a Netbook. -- [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
Tried my hand at compiling the new 2.1.1.0 driver but with the instructions as complex as they were I'm not sure I did it right and I'm not sure how I'd verify if they were installed. If they were installed they didn't work. After this I tried the 1.8.0.0-3 deb package which installed but didn't change anything - still no WPA2 connection. I just tried the array.org kernal method listed above and I've now got a connection. The only thing I'm worried about is to boot into the correct kernal I had to press ESC at Grub and choose the array.org kernal as it was 2.6.28.8. The original kernal was showing as 2.8.28.11, is it bad to be running an old kernel? -- [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
