Grrr... RT61 is often a pain but geeze! At first I thought it was an ipv6 issue as network manager seemed to insist on using it. I disabled ipv6 in the kernel but no fix.
I have now removed the linux-firmware and replaced it with firmware_ralink from the debian repos. Combined with wicd the internet is working much better but still much slower then it should be. Could this be related? https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61621 If anyone is using ndiswrapper on 64 bit as a workaround I'd love to know what device the drivers were for, or a link.

I have a Ralink with RT2561/RT61 chip: $ lspci | grep -i network 05:00.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI In Kubuntu 15.04 my connection is very unstable using NetworkManager. Most of the time the connection is not established. And very few times the connection is established but after a few seconds the connection drops. Unfortunately in this new Kubuntu version if you try to uninstall "network-manager" then "plasma-desktop" is requested to be uninstalled (apparently because of "plasma-nm"). WORKAROUND: I installed Wicd from Kubuntu 14.04 using "chroot": 1- Start the system and try not use Network Manager 2- kill network manager $ sudo pkill -9 NetworkManager 3- Start wicd from "menu" > "internet" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: linux-image-3.19.0-14-generic 3.19.0-14.14 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-14.14-generic 3.19.3 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-14-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: nulluser 1308 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: nulluser 1308 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: KDE Date: Tue Apr 14 22:22:23 2015 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=1edec07e-cb6e-4ca2-b03e-29d7ef434bc8 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-04-12 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Beta amd64 (20150408) MachineType: System manufacturer System Product Name ProcFB: 0 nouveaufb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.19.0-14-generic root=UUID=0f5fd4c5-56a1-494b-9513-074a3e1a11f1 ro quiet splash RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.19.0-14-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.19.0-14-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.143 RfKill: 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: no SourcePackage: linux UdevLog: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/log/udev' UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 08/14/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 2204 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: P8Z77-V LX dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. dmi.board.version: Rev X.0x dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr2204:bd08/14/2013:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnSystemProductName:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKCOMPUTERINC.:rnP8Z77-VLX:rvrRevX.0x:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: System Product Name dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1444226/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
