Same problem: ZyXEL G-220-v2 USB wireless worked in Ubuntu 7.10 but not in booting up 8.04 Live CD. I use WPA2 encryption. It appears to associate with AP but cannnot ping it, and wpa_cli output indicates it loses connection:
=========== wpa_cli =========== # wpa_cli status Selected interface 'eth1' bssid=00:13:10:[xx.xx.xx] ssid=mySSID id=0 pairwise_cipher=CCMP group_cipher=CCMP key_mgmt=WPA2-PSK wpa_state=4WAY_HANDSHAKE But then, immediately issue a second wpa_cli: # wpa_cli status Selected interface 'eth1' wpa_state=ASSOCIATING Successive invocations of wpa_cli give the same result.
