Re: [Bug 492990] Re: USB wireless adaptor (AW-NU221) recognises connection but will not connect in 9.10 - all ok in 9.04

2010-05-02 Thread SuperEngineer
UPDATE:
installed Lucid 10.04 [64 bit  32 bit] -
result... exactly the same as previous described
for Karmic.

USB wireless dongle works after the 'blacklist' edit but not without it
[recognizes network but will not connect].
3G dongle works before the edit and not after the edit.

This is definitely a Gnome degradation, not just Ubuntu [see previous
results].

Nice that 9.04 worked for everything 'out of the box' - not good that
Gnome distros in general killed this functionality and [in my case
Ubuntu itself with 9.10 distro  now 10.04].  Annoyingly it all works
under Windows - but no way am I going back to using that other than for
providing support [yuk].

Hi Jeremy,

I've just tried the live CD of 10.04.  Exactly the same as 9.10 -
wireless network seen but will not connect [as I suggested previously,
kernel driver suspected].

If the difference / change between 9.04  9.10 could be found the
problem would be resolved instantly,

I will try an install tomorrow to test the work-around I used in 9.10...
Step1: add blacklist rt2800usb to:
   /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Step2: add rt2870sta to:
   /etc/modules
Step3: Reboot.
Step 4: Connxn works 'perfectly' [but slow].
