Dear all, I've long tried to get my RT2860 to successfully connect to encrypted wireless networks with a EeePC 1000H on Lucid Lynx (i386), without success. I'm posting here a solution based on http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9255730postcount=1 After compiling and installing the rt2860sta.ko kernel module I was still unable to establish a connection with the Network Manager or doing it manually on a terminal. I've posted my experience here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10775056postcount=140 I hope it helps others. Basically, I configure ra0 with a few iwpriv, instead of using wlan0. I'll keep looking to find out whether it's possible to coherce Network Manager to connect, but so far I've come out empty-handed. The solution on the last link at least got me to connect with the wireless AP.

Hi there! Maybe it's a solution for you - like me - to install the backported wireless modules (linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic) and blacklist the rt2860sta module (sudo echo blacklist rt2860sta /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf). After that my wifi is very stable by using the modules rt2800lib, rt2800pci, rt2800lib and rt2x00pci.

[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
@Mark: Thanks for sharing your experience. During the last 2 week or so I gave some daily Mavericks, installed on an USB stick via usb-crator-gtk, a try, but here I still pretty much had a no go, when it comes to WiFi and my RT2870 based 802.11n USB adapter. Usually I'm just stuck in the evil and vicious Authentication required by wireless network cycle, from which I just can't break free. But it looks like, that the latest over-sized build with kernel 2.6.35-19-generic from 2 or 3 days, now finally seems to be working again with my WiFi adapter, once I 'modprobe -r rt2800usb' one of the two competing USB-adapter drivers rt2870sta and rt2800usb, using the methods, that started to become so crucial with Karmic. I'm now connected since some 30 minutes straight, a new record since Karmic. This nuisance, where both wireless USB drivers are getting loaded, was first introduced with Karmic and still hasn't been fixed. I wonder if that ever will still happen. 365 days, 2 Lucid releases and an almost Maverick one should have been plenty of time for that, one would think. Right now I am d/l'ing the latest, now again correctly sized 10.10 Daily Build ISO file - the Beta release date seems to be getting close - to then update my USB stick, which btw. has to be done with Maverick's usb-creator-gtk version. The one being part of Karmic fails to boot from the stick's logical partitions. Then I just hope, that the rt2870 nightmare after some 8 months now, eventually has really come to an end - at least until they break something new, that is ;-) -- [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

It was a week or two ago now but I upgraded my eeePC 901 to Maverick (via update-manager -d) and the wireless works well now (it did break GRUB, but I recovered using an Ubuntu server CD which I happened to have lying around). Previously I had problems were my other laptop (Dell 1557) would loose wireless connection if I switched on the 901 but that all seems fine now.

I was under the impression, that the rt2870sta mess, preventing an USB WiFi adapter to connect to a WPA2 protected access point, which was introduced in Lucid, has been sorted out by now and should have been fixed in 10.04.1 Desktop Live-CD. But for me, it is still not working, keeping Lucid useless. Btw, both drivers, rt2870sta and rt2800usb are still being loaded simultaneously, as initially reported i.e. for Karmic in Bug #460323.

Sokai, sorry I have been busier at work and home than very early in this thread and have not had time to even try. That's why I had stuck with Karmic until Maverick came along. But from my past experience it is fairly difficult to make this work and it will break every time there is a Kernel update to Lucid until what ever fix went into Karmic or Maverick (likely different fixes) goes into the upstream Kernel. If you really want to make it work on Lucid I guess you will have to just walk backwards on this thread and start trying anything where someone reported success. It is a bit of a moving target so the suggestions early on in the bug likely don't apply any more.

[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
** Description changed: SRU Justification for Lucid for linux-backports-modules-2.6.32: The change adds a new version of the rt2860sta and rt2870sta drivers to the linux-backports-modules-wireless package. The drivers did not exist before, so there is no regression potential due to them. If the drivers fail to work properly, the user can just remove the package and use the stock drivers. + + Note: To get the backported driver: + # aptitude install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic = The rt2860sta module, included with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04) cannot connect to mixed WPA/WPA2 networks. This driver is used in most EeePCs. This issue is fixed in the 2.6.33 kernel, unfortunately this kernel is not yet available in Lucid. Symptoms are: connection works once but disconnects rapidly and then gets stuck in a connect/ask password cycle, or cannot connect at all. There are two known fixes at the moment: [1]: Ricardo Salveti maintains a 2.6.32 kernel with the fix backported (See comment #80) [2]: Installing the official drivers from RaLink also solves the issue for some. (See comment #107). To check if your wireless chipset is indeed the RaLink chipset that is affected by this driver, execute the lspci -vnn | grep RaLink command. It should display something close to the following: $ lspci -vnn | grep RaLink 01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2860 [1814:0781] Subsystem: RaLink Device [1814:2790] -- [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 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
I think it's helpful to provide some background on this driver, and
follow up with what I think is the best solution for now.
Linux drivers fall into two categories: the proper drivers tree and the
staging drivers tree. They are both shipped as part of the upstream
kernel, and drivers may be found in drivers/ and drivers/staging
respectively. For example, Intel wireless drivers are part of the proper
drivers tree in drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/, while these Realtek
drivers are part of drivers/staging/{rt2860,rt2870}.
The difference between a proper driver and a staging driver is the
quality of the code. Proper drivers are maintained by the Linux
community as a whole, often with help from the vender (but not always).
Intel is a great example of this. They employ developers to maintain
their wireless, graphics, acpi, and other drivers who work among all the
other Linux kernel developers. However, Realtek has a history of not
working among upstream Linux kernel developers. They tend to throw code
over the wall, which is to say that they develop the code internally,
shove it out the door, and never look back. The drivers are open source,
so Greg Kroah-Hartman has worked to pull them into the staging tree. The
hope is that the greater Linux developer community will be able to take
the Realtek code and fix it up so that it becomes just as good as the
proper drivers. If that happens, it will move into the proper drivers
tree.
The problem is that Realtek still does not work with the upstream Linux
community to help this process. Instead, they develop newer versions of
the driver and throw them over the wall again. Much of the hard work
developers have put in to clean up the previous code is either thrown
away or painfully merged into the new code. However, it appears that
quality assurance is not being met in these new driver updates from
Realtek. New updates may fix previous bugs, but they introduce new bugs.
If Realtek were more responsive to the community, we would likely have
more stable drivers faster. Until that time, we'll always be caught in a
cat and mouse game.
What do we do now? My belief is that the best we can do is leave the
driver that exists in 10.04 LTS as is, but bring in a newer version from
the 2.6.34 kernel into linux-backports-modules-wireless. This is the
package I provided in comment #202. Although it does not fix all issues
for everyone, it does help some people. We could backport the 2.6.33
driver, but there's evidence that this does not fix things for everyone
either. I have read the changelog between 2.6.33 and 2.6.34, and it
appears that 2.6.34 should be the same as 2.6.33 with a bunch of fixes
applied.
If you are feeling adventurous, you can also try to change your wireless
card. If it's a USB card, that's easiest :). If it's a mini-pci card,
you can still change it, but you have to crack open your laptop to do
so... Or you can get a USB dongle and use it instead. I'm not suggesting
anyone do this, but it is an option. Intel and Atheros cards tend to
work the best in Linux.

[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
@Chase Douglas: I also believe that bringing the newer version from 2.6.34 into linux-backports-modules-wireless is the best option. We saw from this bug that none of the solutions actually fixed most of the bugs reported, so it's hard to select the best option. Even the upstream code is in a dedicated situation. The community sent many new patches to the driver already, but the vendor also released a newer version, so currently we have more than one development branch for it. Hopefully the upstream one will get better and usable for everyone, but no one can guaranty the correct support for this chip at the moment. -- [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

Status in The Linux Kernel: Invalid Status in Ubuntu Release Notes: New Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “linux” source package in Lucid: Triaged Bug description: The rt2860sta module, included with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04) cannot connect to mixed WPA/WPA2 networks. This driver is used in most EeePCs. This issue is fixed in the 2.6.33 kernel, unfortunately this kernel is not yet available in Lucid. Symptoms are: connection works once but disconnects rapidly and then gets stuck in a connect/ask password cycle, or cannot connect at all. There are two known fixes at the moment: [1]: Ricardo Salveti maintains a 2.6.32 kernel with the fix backported (See comment #80) [2]: Installing the official drivers from RaLink also solves the issue for some. (See comment #107). To check if your wireless chipset is indeed the RaLink chipset that is affected by this driver, execute the lspci -vnn | grep RaLink command. It should display something close to the following: $ lspci -vnn | grep RaLink 01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2860 [1814:0781] Subsystem: RaLink Device [1814:2790] To unsubscribe from this bug, go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/496093/+subscribe -- [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

This bug has bitten me as well. My kid sister has a EeePC 1000h and she of course updated without me around and obviously its my fault for recommending Linux that she cant get to the net now. I bet more than one person supporting a family members netbook is getting the same treatment making this a rather personal issue for many. Please fix it fast because any sort of kernel replacements only last untill next kernel update and then it will break AGAIN for everybody. -- [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 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
@Alexia: In your case I might recommend you to use Marco Paulo Martins Sousa's #164 solution. Go and download one of the proposed (2.6.33+) kernels. I'm running off of 2.6.34-rc7-lucid this very moment on this eee PC 1000h and I haven't noticed any side effect so far. This solution should be somewhat stable since future updates - until Canonical releases 2.6.33 - should simply push the kernels underneath the kernel you install. Further more, once they catch up to your version it won't matter for the very reason installing it in the first place works - the bug is fixed in kernels 2.6.33+. Good luck to you and your sister :) You can find the kernels here: 2.6.33.3-lucid: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.33.3-lucid/ 2.6.34-rc7-lucid: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.34-rc7-lucid/ -- [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

@ Elton Woo: The 2.6.33-3 kernel works as a temporary fix. However, finding this information and installing the packages requires extra work from the user. As 10.04 is LTS version - and even has Netbook Edition - an official fix would be highly appreciated. BTW, I didn't find any union mount filesystems implemented in the 2.6.33-3 kernel. With SquashFS, these would make it possible to squeeze the whole OS into the 4 GB SSD drive of my Eeepc 901 (with second SSD mounted as /home). I had this setup in Hardy with UnionFS. -- [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 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks
I found it really easy just to install the updated driver from ralink. Here are my steps thanks to post #25: First download the new driver from ralink: http://bit.ly/bpzQRQ While you still have inter-tubes access, make sure you install build- essential so you can compile the driver sudo apt-get install build-essential Next untar it somewhere in your home dir. edit this file in the folder you just untared ./os/linux/config.mk and make it look like this: (I found this step necessary.

I have to say I'm becoming increasingly irritated with Ubuntu support and starting to have serious doubts about it as a viable platform. First a major security flaw was left unfixed for the entire 6 months of Karmic, now a bug that essentially disables networking on a major percentage of netbooks is marked as Medium? You guys have some whacked priorities. This kinda of crap would never fly in a professional product. -- [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
