Here is the email mentioned above: Dear Markus, my name is Enzo and I'm becoming crazy from the version 11.04 of Ubuntu because, from then on, I can't use the WiFi connection (it worked well only with the 10.10). My netbook is an Asus eeePC 1001 HA, equipped with the WiFi card Ralink rt3090. About two years ago I downloaded the driver from your site in Launchpad and I added your "ppa" to my Software Sources in order to receive the updates. Upgrading to newer version of Ubuntu maybe something was going wrong. Now I have downloaded from the site of Ralink the package RT2860 Firmware V26.zip (created on march 2010) but:
1) I'm not sure if this is the last version; if yes, may I install it? 2) Does Canonical, or the Linux foundation, keep up-to-date the drivers or not? When I open in Ubuntu the window "Added Drivers" (System>Administration) I can see the driver rt3090 "installed and activated" and a note says : "maintained from the developers of Ubuntu". I don't know what I have to do now: waiting for the new version of Ubuntu (12.04 LTS) or installing by myself the package mentioned above? Note please that I have NO PROBLEM working with Windows XP (dual-boot) on the same netbook!! Thank you very much for your attention and forgive my poor english, best regards. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896582 Title: RT3090 Network speed are very low with Oneiric.
