[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
Vladimir Yakovlev, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc7 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
I also ran into this problem when I moved from 8.04 to 10.04. I have an ASUS Eee PC 1000 that I tested with the final lucid live CD. When I first booted up and tried to connect to my router, it connect right away, but after just a few minutes it disconnected. When it tried to reconnect, it reported that the security phrase was wrong. I was able to get it to connect by turning the wifi card off using eee-control, turning the networking off, then turning the wifi card back on and restarting networking. It didn't always work, but it would usually connect after 3 or 4 rounds of this activity. After reviewing the notes in 344022, I made a change to the security settings on my router to use WPA2-PSK (AES encryption) for authentication rather than WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK (TKIP + AES encryption) and that appears to have resolved the issue for me. I realize that it's not a good solution for others who can't make changes to router settings. It's strange that the mixed cypher worked in previous revisions of the driver, but not in newer ones. -- [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
I would like to stress, that WPA (TKIP) and WPA2 (AES) always have been functional. The problem is mainly related to connecting to Routers which offer both Encryption methods at the same time = mixed Cypher. This is standard setting on most routers for compatibility. WPA Enterprise has also been problematic. Thus reports about accessing Institutional or Corporate Networks with the new driver are needed. For me, the Jaunty driver (1.8.1.0) has ceased to work reliably also in single cypher (maybe a problem with the router). For now i have downgraded to 1.7.1.1.

[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
I have spent several days toying around with the various solutions proposed. I especially concentrated on installing the Ralink 2.2.0.0 driver with and without the patch (the changes to cmm_wpa.c) all without success. Parsing the syslog, I found that a connection was made to my access point, but the call to DHCKDISCOVER by dhclient kept timing out. So long story short, I eventually got my rt2860sta driver working with WPA2 by following the advice on this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1110957.html (scroll down to the post by tanvach on April 6th, 2009, 08:19 AM). Basically, reverting to the 1.7.1.1 version of the driver made my wireless connection work. Note: I did have to perform a couple commands before installing the .deb package to circumvent an installation error due to the presence of a newer driver. ifconfig ra0 down #ra0 is my alias for rt2860sta driver rmmod rt2860sta then I followed the rest of the instructions in the his post.

Karmic has had a working driver for the last several releases, and in the last few days (or maybe longer) the function key to toggle the radio on/off on my eeepc 901 has been working :-). BTW, the driver implementation in Karmic (don't know the source) is *much* better than the RaLink 2.1.2.0 driver I've been limping along with on Jaunty (see comment above https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/339891/comments/104). The only thing[s] keeping me from switching entirely to Karmic at this time are the occasional brakages on updates and the screen saver / suspend timers don't currently work (at least on my eeepc 901, 'though I can suspend using the function key / closing the lid).

I'm not too familiar with all that's been posted here previously, but -- following up on the lastest posts, I can say this much. -Have a Asus EEEPC 901, with Ubuntu Netbook Remix Jaunty. -Have a D-Link DIR-625. Here's stuff I did: -follow these instrcutions to a T: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/339891/comments/114 -afterwards, updated to an array.org kernel, though I mot sure how to check the version I got. Tried connecting, still nothing. I can however tell you that every time, the wifi DID see a network, did pickup on my SSID, tried to connect - even the router received the MAC adress of the EEE. So there is clearly some communication between both. Also, everytime, it would try to connect, then ask me for a password. When I put it in, the password was a simple 8-letter word. However, everytime it could not connect, the windowed request comes back, and I see more black spots then before -- so I check the show letters checkbox and I see that the pass is now in HEX value. I went back to the router, changed the security level and went to WPA personal-only -- it's not specified exactly if this is TKIP, but this is what I'm led to believe. As soon as I took off the AES-level security from the router, BOOM -- the EEE connected! This looks to me like the problem is related to AES security. Not sure how I would adress it, but I figured you could use the info at the very least.

I've been struggling with this issue and patiently waiting for a resolution since I first purchased my Asus Eee PC 1000 several months ago. I converted to Eeebuntu NBR 2.0 and WICD and have never had a problem using WPA2-PSK on my home net. However I've never been able to get a 802.11n connection either. I really felt, based on everything I'd read, that the issue was driver related and that I just needed to wait for a good solution to surface. It did. After backup everything up I followed the instructions on this link... http://www.ayetea.com/updating-the-rt8260-80211n-wireless-network-driver-from-source.html and this morning I had a fast and rock solid 802.11n connection with WPA2-PSK. It looks as though Ralink has, with v2.1.2.0, corrected the 802.11n issue and if the proper WPA_SUPPLICANT mods are made to the config.mk file then both the issues are resolved.

I am not up to recompiling drivers, so I updated to the 2.6.28-13 kernal to see if that solved the problem. It did not. But, I changed the access point configuration from Cypher TKIP/AES to TKIP only and that solved the problem for me. This works on two access ponts with different hardware (Trendnet and Zonet).

I also note that the connection information gives the speed as 54Mb while in Windows it reports 135Mb for this access point. which is configured as G,N mixed mode. So, that may be another bug.

Hello Everyone! I guess it is important to sort Driver related problems from Router related ones! I run Ubuntu Jaunty with unmodified rt2860 staging driver (that makes it ver. 1.8.1.0 I guess - forgot how to check it), but a modified RT2860.dat file, which enables N-speeds. I currently use Network manager ver. 0.7.0.100. We have 3 different APs in our shared flat. One of it is the D-Link DIR-635. Connection to this router can be troublesome: prolonged authentication time, failure to connect, sudden loss of connection, or loss of SMB or internet connections while staying associated to the router. In the last case the router cannot be reached by Ping either, even though connection seems to be maintained. I'd like to stress, that this router seems to show similar problems with various Windows clients: they get connected to the router, but not to the internet! This occurs rather randomly and might be related to running the Router in mixed 802.11 mode (n,g,b), With the Belkin 54 G (802.11g+WPA) and the Level One AP (802.11g+WPA2) there seems to be no such trouble. Right now I am connected to the DIR-635. Settings are: Mixed 802.11 Mode (n,g,b), WPA Auto, Cypher set to TKIP (WPA). It can be set to AES (WPA2) as well, but I find it slows Authentication a lot, sometimes so much that NM jumps to the Belkin instead. However, for some time I ran the router with Cypher: AES; WPA mode: WPA2, without major trouble. I presently cannot connect to WPA Enterprise network at my university (eduroam). This was possible with earlier versions of the driver. To round things up: testing connections with different routers or testing routers with different clients might be essential to get a better grip of what the driver trouble consists of. Some of the newer routers with Draft n have their own issues. For sure is, that mixed cypher continues to be non-functional both with WPA Personal and Enterprise. The first patch seems to work for some, but there is at least 1 case reporting total loss of connectivity to encrypted networks after applying it. I have a (somewhat) working connection now, so I am reluctant to try both later drivers or patches. But I would like to participate in an ordered approach to sort this out.

Dries, I believe Gro-Tsen is correct in his comments. Over time I have been finding that the 2.1.2.0 driver, while it works, takes longer to initially connect and seems to drop the connection randomly several times in an evening, something I wasn't seeing with the array driver on 8.10. I've been using Karmic a bit more and it seems both faster and more stable. I haven't had much time but looked at the patch Gro-Tsen linked to and I believe it will not apply easily to the new code (FWIW). You may have already reached similar conclusions.

[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
I believe I can offer some enlightenment on what is going on behind this bug (or at least a related problem which affords the same description). When the rt2860 driver (say, version 1.8.0.0) attempts to associate to a station offering WPA/WPA2 encryption, it sends in the (association) management frame an RSN IE describing the cipher suite; but whoever wrote this bit of the source code forgot to add the appropriate header (type+length) to the data chunk in the frame. So the access point receives malformed data and, depending on how picky it is, it will ignore just the end of the data (in which case there are few problems) or the entire frame (in which case association is not possible). The incriminated code is in sta/assoc.c, function MlmeAssocReqAction(), around the call to MakeOutgoingFrame() which refers to pAd-StaCfg.RSN_IE - in fact, it's a bit more subtle, because there are several different calls with #ifdef's around them, and only one is incorrect (it forgets to refer to pAd-StaCfg.RSNIE_Len), so the bug only occurs when NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT is set and SIOCSIWGENIE is defined. Now it seems that RaLink fixed this problem in a version 1.7.1.1 of their driver, but the fixed was not carried forth to the 1.8.0.0 and later versions. As far as I can make it, version 2.1.2.0 of their driver *still* has the bug (read lines 519-521 of sta/assoc.c: obviously there is a type and length field missing when compared to the next call to the same function). So I can't quite imagine why people are finding that version 2.1.2.0 fixes the problem: it definitely sends malformed frames and should be fixed. The version of the RaLink driver which is included in the staging/ area of stock kernels will fix the problem starting from 2.6.30: the appropriate commit is this one: URL: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=ed291e8051ee418de7ccd3507c1e783323fd1c35 (commit ed291e80 by Adam McDaniel), which merges the 1.7.1.1 version fixes into the 1.8.0.0 version of the RaLink driver. The latter fix can trivially be backported to 2.6.28 or 2.6.29 kernels, so I would advise Ubuntu to do exactly that: use the staging/ copy of the driver and apply the patch I just linked to. Attached is a more detailed description of the problem (including a trace of an incorrect management frame), which I sent to Greg Kroah- Hartman before noticing that the problem was fixed in 2.6.30 anyway. ** Attachment added: description of damaged association frames (plain text, English) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27544242/description.txt -- [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

Dries, thank you for your suggestions (and all the other work on this thread). I seem to be back in business now, but with an unpatched 2.1.2.0 from: http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2009_0521_RT2860_Linux_STA_V2.1.2.0.tgz The only thing I modified on this driver were the two lines in os/linux/config.mk: HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y I did NOT apply the patch that is moving upstream per this bug to the 2.1.2.0 sources I downloaded from Ralink. BTW there are significant other differences between the debian 1.8.0.0 sources and the 2.1.2.0 sources from Ralink. I had previously removed the rt2860-dkms package and the Jaunty supplied driver when I was having problems, and to the best of my knowledge was running the 1.8.0.0-3 debian rt2860-source package with the patch to common/cmm_wpa.c. I had *never* been successful in connecting to WPA2 with any Jaunty builds (starting with Alpha 3) with the Ubuntu supplied driver, but with the debian sources compiled with the patch I could connect, but had the intermittent problems described (same symptoms as the total inability to connect with the default driver). So in summary it appears that the stock 2.1.2.0 sources from Ralink compiled with supplicant support have proper WPA2 support without the proposed patch. Furthermore the patch applied to 1.8.0.0 did help but did NOT provide reliable WPA2 support in my situation (D-Link DIR-655, mixed 802.11n g, WPA2 Only - Personal).

I have found that usually when I use network manager to edit the connections and delete the Auto entry that I can re-enter the password and continue (but even this isn't totally reliable). I'm bummed since I had a perfectly working 8.10 system. I guess I'll give a patched 2.x driver from Ralink a try but an seriously worried I'm wasting my time at this point (don't know enough about what is happening under the hood to fix it myself). I guess the lesson learned is that I should have used the fresh partition for a few days instead of jumping to the upgrade as soon as I got a connect :-(. If anyone has any suggestions I could try I'd love to hear them.

Humblegod:- go to a terminal and type in 'cat /proc/modules|grep rt' this will tell you what modules are active begining with the letters rt. If it is the rt2860sta module then just make sure the /staging directory is clear of the same module name, IE staging/rt2860/rt2860sta.ko. If its not there, my suggestion is to continue with the next steps and disconnect your wireless ability by network manager or CLI and remove the module before patching and inserting the new one.

[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
I want to try this patch, as I'm having the same WPA/WPA2 problem with Jaunty UNR on my Eee1000. lspci says I'm using the RaLink RT2860 network controller. But following https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/339891/comments/35 I opened Synaptic to remove the rt2860-source package, and that isn't installed. Curious, I followed the next step and went to /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/ and, instead of finding an rt2860 directory, I found that I have an rt2870 directory with rt2870sta.ko. I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to this depth of things, so I'm not sure why lspci says I have RT2860 but /lib/modules/.../staging has rt2870. There's also no package in Synaptic that comes up when I search for either rt2860 or rt2870 So I guess my question is, should these directions still apply to me? If so, how exactly do I go about removing the driver? -- [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

It's not just Ralink. The problem also exists with my NetGear WG511v2 (Marvell) wireless PCMCIA card via NDISWrapper and Netgear Wireless Router. Working OK with Intrepid. Did a Version Upgrade to Jaunty via Upgrade Manager ... killed wireless with WPA. Tried network manager, wicd, wpa-gui, manual configuration of wpa-supplicant and interfaces configs. This is lots of fun and good experience, ... and a massive waste of time because it's still not working. If we're all only looking for a problem with Ralink it may just be the wrong place ... Most noticable / potentially most useful symptom for me is in wpa_gui ... messages report connection + authentication then almost immediately notify DISCONNECT and deletion of keys. This continues indefinitely but never results in a stable connection.

[Bug 339891] Re: [Jaunty] wireless rt2860 not connecting to WPA
Would love to test this patch but am not sure how. Anyone care to explain? Got two laptops to test this on. -- [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
no problem:- I tried this patch and I now have the 2.1.0.0 driver working on WPA again but not WPA2 but that is better than the last post where i could get any WPA connection. I don't know how to use the patch the file so i looked at the patch, figured out the sytax and realise that what it does is change a value in the file located in username/DPO_RT2860_LinuxSTA_V2.1.0.0/common called cmm_wpa.c as it took me a bit to find the line in the file and copy over the change I have attached it to my post. download it and copy it to the common folder where you have extracted the ralink driver so it overwrites it. These are the steps that I took to get here:- 1. Fire up synaptic (System - Administration - Synaptic), for me this was to remove the 'rt2860-source' package I installed. But also check that the staging rt2860 driver is removed from the kernel to make sure there is not conflict, as Dries stated check the directory /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/rt2860/ and make sure there is no file called rt2860sta.ko. 2. Copy the file cmm_wpa.c to the /common directory where you have extracted the driver. (Now I'm working from the README_STA file..) 3. Open the Makefile and make sure at the top two lines are as follows:- (this is always the case from driver to driver so I normally skip this...) RT28xx_MODE = STA TARGET = LINUX save the file. 4. then go to the directory os/linux and open the file called config.mk. 5. You then have two choices to make on how the driver works with your system, either control the driver and connection with the Gnome network Manager, or by the wpa supplicant the driver directly, I always use the network manager to keep in line with the gnome experience. if you want to use the Network Manager then make sure that HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT and HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT are set to y -- after this, the file asks you to type in this command, I've never been able to make sense or correctly use the command. Can you help Dries :- = #cd wpa_supplicant-x.x = #./wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ira0 -c wpa_supplicant.conf -d if you wish to do the other method the instructions are in the makefile but i wont touch on them as i think most would be happy with the first option - 6. Now all the config has been done, open a Terminal window and go to the extracted driver directory, for me this would be:- =cd DPO_RT2860_LinuxSTA_V2.1.0.0 7. time to start the process... =sudo make [enter password] 8. As long as that has compiled with out an Error you then need to copy the config file =sudo cp RT2860STA.dat /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat 9. Time to load the driver module! =cd os/linux =sudo /sbin/insmod rt2860sta.ko Reboot and see what happens, i think this is the first time that someone has been able to change the code and get success so i hope a lot more people can try this when they have a spare 20mins, ** Attachment added: cmm_wpa.c http://launchpadlibrarian.net/25995768/cmm_wpa.c -- [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
