Hello,
to tell you the truth I was scared at looking at the
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.kernel/54624/ . The
reason is that probably you are right, but unfortunately I am no such an
expert to get a solution from the thread.
I am looking in the packages repositories of debian an I am not able to
find crda. On the other hand in the package contents search the 80211
stuff is related to linux headers, which I have installed. One thing
that might help is that when I used iw list before, I got something like
nl80211 not found. After that, I thought that one module should be
loaded. I loaded mac80211. I checked it was (and I got mac.... and
cfg....). Now, when I type iw list, I got nothing (neither error nor
result).
Everything and what you told me makes me feel that the solution is
nearby and easy; but I don't know how to go on ...
Thanks a lot,
Wenceslao

Package: firmware-ralink
Version: 0.26
Severity: important
I recently bought a Wifi stick (SMCWUSBS-N3) which uses the chip Ralink RT3070,
because they say it works in Linux. I tried to install the driver (through
firmware-ralink package and through compiling the driver ralink offers in their
website) and finally it is detected (thanks to posts in internet ... those
drivers are not working out of the box).
The problem is that I cannot see my AP (which is in 2.472GHz; channel 13). I
can see the AP (and connect to it) at the same position in another computer
(internal wifi) and, in the same computer and stick with Windows 7 (now
completely removed ;-) ).
After some days of work, I obtain the following information: the stick is only
capable (under my conf. in Debian) to see 11 channels in the 2.4GHz range (NOT
including 2.472GHz). Also the APs detected (neighbours) are with signals much
weaker than in the same computer and stick and position in Windows 7.
Another thing that could help the diagnosis is that iw is not detecting any
interface or device.
Current conf. of computer:
Debian Squeeze
Linux Kernel 2.6.32-5
Network-Manager
I blacklist in modprobe.d through specific files: rt2800(usb,lib), rt2x00, etc
....
....
Sorry for not providing all the information, but I am in another computer so I
cannot access now the logs. If you think something specific is needed I can put
in pendrive and submit here.
I checked the internet and although this has been seen some times the solutions
they give are not working
This might be related to
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.kernel/54624/
? Any news there?
Best regards
Uwe
