A RALINK wireless works fine on Ubuntu 7.04
The problem is with an alternate Motorola brand modem, really:
Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller
0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 03)
Subsystem: 1057:7010
which is OK under Microsoft and did work under some previous Debian kernel
Upon loading the bcm43xx driver or alternate ndiswrapper route, there is
related by:
$ iwconfig
eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:off/any Nickname:"Broadcom 4306"
Mode:Managed Access Point: Invalid
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Link Quality=0/100 Signal level=-256 dBm Noise level=-256 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
Subsequent parameter setting commands use iwconfig fail to alter this
configuration.
In contrast there is complete success with the RALINK wireless with rt2500
driver, using the
$ sudo iwconfig ra0 PARAMETER
changes.
So since this 14e4:4320 worked earlier under Debian and iwconfig is sane
for the RALINK wireless, this is some combination of ingredients
problem.
