Ubuntu 12.04, 64bit, Lenovo ThinkPad E525, RTL8188CE. Affected by problems.
I've been watching the output to syslog and have noticed a few things. * When the card is actually up, it works great. * When the card goes into "poor performance," it's actually rapidly negotiating and losing authentication with the router. I frequently see "Reason 6" messages prior to a reauthentication attempt. kernel: [ 111.866669] wlan0: deauthentiated from <redacted> (Reason: 6) wpa_supplicant[1090]: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=<redacted> reason=6 These messages are followed by successful renegotiation, which typically ends with the line: dhclient: bound to <IP address> -- renewal in 48 seconds. At this point, either another DHCPREQUEST occurs, which means the connection works for another X seconds, or it fails for whatever reason and spits out a giant amount of spam, preceded by the Reason 6 codes. That leads me to suspect something funny about timing. When the timing lines up right, the card works fine. When the timing doesn't line up right, it bombs out. I've tried the fix from comment #106, but to no avail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/902557 Title: Wireless not working in 12.04 for rtl8192ce (RTL8188CE) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/902557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
