[Bug 200500] Re: mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp
Frank Niedermann, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please do not test the kernel in the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. As well, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream', and comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. ** Tags removed: mac80211 rtl8187 ** Tags added: kernel-wifi needs-upstream-testing ** Summary changed: - mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp + 0846:6a00 mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp ** Attachment removed: output of lspci-vvnn https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/285150/+files/lspci-vvnn.log ** Attachment removed: dmesg output after issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/285151/+files/dmesg-afterIssue.log ** Attachment removed: dmesg https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/302428/+files/dmesg.log ** Attachment removed: lspci -vvnn https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/302429/+files/lspci-vvnn.log ** Attachment removed: syslog https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/302431/+files/syslog.log ** Attachment removed: uname.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/317592/+files/uname.log ** Attachment removed: version.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/317594/+files/version.log ** Attachment removed: lsmod https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/302430/+files/lsmod.log ** Attachment removed: lspci-vvnn.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/317595/+files/lspci-vvnn.log ** Attachment removed: dmesg https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/323959/+files/dmesg.log ** Attachment removed: uname -a https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/323960/+files/uname-a.txt ** Attachment removed: lspci -vvnn https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/323961/+files/lscpi-vvnn.txt ** Attachment removed: iwconfig (obfuscated) while connected https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/323962/+files/iwconfig.1 ** Attachment removed: iwconfig about 5 minutes later https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/323963/+files/iwconfig.2 ** Attachment removed: i https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/614560/+files/i ** Attachment removed: dmesg.log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+attachment/317593/+files/dmesg.log ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200500 Title: 0846:6a00 mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Confirmed with Xubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope, 2.6.28 kernel. The bug is just as described - dmesg says that NetworkManager assumes that the wireless is out of range, and changing mlme.c fixes the issue, but, of course, chankging the kernel each time isn't optimal.

I'm experiencing this bug using linux-backports-modules v2.6.28-11.12 on the Jaunty release candidate, running iwlagn for an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61) card connecting to a hidden 11N network with fluctuating signal strength. It doesn't happen using the standard (non-backports) drivers (but the standard drivers have other problems, such as crashing on system shutdown). network-manager does reconnect when it fails, which is great, but it is extremely annoying that the network is disconnecting in the first place. It does it randomly at intervals between one minute(?) and an hour. I found this message talking about a simple hack in the mac80211 code to stop the disconnects: http://www.gossamer- threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/942194 - maybe it's the same thread Jeff mentioned in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/200500/comments/28. -- mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200500 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

When I first commented on this bug report, I thought that this was some type of kernel/driver bug. Apparently it's not. This message is consistent with when my router seems to go down, as I found out when a friend using Windows experienced a disconnect at the same time while using my wireless connection. My simple solution: use NetworkManager. I had disabled it as it was buggy during the Intrepid RC releases, but now it works like a charm and immediately reconnects me once the router becomes available again after this error, as you can see below: [337749.729069] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:15:e9:76:1a:ee - assume out of range [337750.585205] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:15:e9:76:1a:ee -- mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200500 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

I do not think that this fix will be applied in future kernels---I'm not even entirely comfortable applying it to my kernel. Having to allow for response times 50x slower than normal is hardly a fix. As far as I've seen in this report, the problem hasn't been found. I've tested one of the most recent kernels to date and the problem still exists. So there's no way in saying how long it'll take. So I'd say try compiling the kernel.

Hi, Btw, can you all please help me in this: I cannot compile kernels right now. I like using Linux, but I don't want to use self-compiled kernels right now, unless I become an expert at it. I can start learning now that I have two laptops, but I'd not waste time on it with so much research pending. So, will you guys please tell me if your 'fixes' if you have found any, are going to go into the next kernel distribution? If yes, which one?

After attempting what was stated in my previous message (modifying the monitoring interval to 100 * HZ and recompiling the kernel), I have not received the error. My PC has been on since my last post and my net has not gone down. Speeds are excellent - above what I thought my max was. I see no other problems. I also noticed that the same error is happening on another computer of mine, where it previously didn't. It may be attributed to a new kernel version (2.6.25, while it was previously using 2.6.24). Therefore, I do not think this problem lies within the rt61* drivers. It's a good fix until others figure out a more effective solution.

I am not using Ubuntu (Gentoo, vanilla sources, kernel 2.6.27), however I'm having the same problem, so hopefully this information will help. I do not use NetworkManager (it didn't handle my wireless properly), so that is not the problem. I searched the driver source for the phrase, but could not find it anywhere - does anyone know where this error message originates? grep -rl ProbeResp ./ I used the above command to locate any strings within all files in the source directory and found nothing of use. However, using the above command to search for No ProbeResp in the kernel source directory (2.6.27) produced the following file, in which I found the error message: /usr/src/linux/net/mac80211/mlme.c (line 1059) Above, the following link was referenced: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=5t=2081p=30312hilit=No+ProbeResp+from+current+AP#p30312 However, the file it references does not appear to exist within kernel 2.6.27. The file you are looking for to modify IEEE80211_MONITORING_INTERVAL is the above file (mlme.c). This is the constant that is referenced when a timeout is determined. I'll set it to a higher value (default seems to be 2 * HZ), recompile, and post back with any success. Either way, it'll only be a temporary fix - we'll need to take it up with serialmonkey to figure out the real problem. Hope this helps.

Now, at least, I can stay associated to an AP for any length of time. But, almost the *instant* any traffic goes over the WG111, the NoProbeResp messages come up and the association is killed, not to be resurrected.

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- mac80211: WLAN losing connection: No ProbeResp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200500 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
