Unfortunately, these still don't solve my problem with an MSI US54SE.
I'm using Debian (a mixture of sarge and etch right now) and the 2.6.20.3
kernel, with the two patches above. The device is detected correctly,
loads its firmware, associates with the access point (a FritzBox 7141 DSL
router), and even gets a DHCP response; but after that, it's just dead
in the water.
According to 'ifconfig', it never receives any packets (which is strange,
since the DHCP responses arrived without problem).
Here are some extracts from the system logs; the sequence of events was
- plug in USB stick
- ifup eth1 (works)
- ping -I eth1 192.167.178.1 (try to ping router, 'network unreachable')
- ifdown eth1
- ifdown eth0 (just to make sure eth0 doesn't interfere)
- ifup eth1 (still works)
- ping 192.168.178.1 ('network unreachable')
- ifdown eth1

This behavior is the same regardless of whether I'm using WPA2, WEP
or an unencrypted connection.
One additional problem I have with the US54SE, which might be related,
is that 'iwconfig' always reports a bit rate of 1Mb/s, and refuses
(without error message or other indication of failure) to let me change it.
The access point, however, says that the connection is running at 54Mb/s.
Any ideas?
Jens.
