Public bug reported: Hi,
I can confirm the error with my wlan-stick. It works perfectly in an initial install of ubuntu 12.04 after updating to the latest patch state via update-manager the device just stopped working properly. Due this happend to my old install and could not solve it, I decided to have a look using the device with live-cd of ubuntu 12.04. It worked without any problems. So I did a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 and it still worked as it should. After (and even while) updating the system via update-manager to latest patch level, the device did see much less networks in the area and finally could not connect with my own wlan. Heres my device (had the same problem with a netgear usb device WNA 1000M using the same chipset => store refund and bough another device, due I thought it was simply broken): Bus 001 Device 003: ID 050d:2103 Belkin Components F7D2102 802.11n N300 Micro Wireless Adapter v3000 [Realtek RTL8192CU] I tracked some logging of syslog which is hopefully helpful for you (will add it later, because I cannot access the textfile at the moment). ** Affects: gnome-nettool (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-nettool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036002 Title: Can confirm problem with the same chipset Status in “gnome-nettool” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hi, I can confirm the error with my wlan-stick.
