Public bug reported: I have a computer using a wifi device Realtek RTL8188CE, which is constantly dropping connection and not being able to reconnect.
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu Ubuntu 12.04LTS freshinstall from 2012-11-04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center I only know the modules that generate problems: - rtl8192ce - rtl8192c_common 3) What you expected to happen WiFi to work stable. 4) What happened instead WiFi too unstable to be used: connects (WPA) but after some seconds drops, tries to reconnect and cannot again until reboot. (* as of research, there are issues with realtek since version 11.10 *) (* I just found a question but no bug regarding that device - the question from July is not answered and automatically closed *) ** Affects: gnome-nettool (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075421 Title: Realtek RTL8188CE wireless does not work in Ubuntu 12.04LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+bug/1075421/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
