Rtl8192CU: regular disconnect in managed mode after a short while

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,

I've recently bought myself an USB device, based on the RTL8192CU chipset, running under 64bit kernel 3.15.0-rc6 at the moment.

Firmware is installed where it should be.

Debuglog of the kernel is here: http://pastebin.com/Eh6pBbra

The problem is this: I am running the device in managed mode and let it connect to my AP.

First all works as intended, but after a short while the device always stops working altogether.

No output in the kernel log, not even about deauthenticating but it just stops working at all, no traffic anymore, I've got to unplug it or unload and reload the driver and then the same starts all over again.

This seems to be a long lasting regression (https://www.google.com/#q=linux+rtl8192cu+disconnects+linux+) and there's also a repository on Github containing the original Realtek driver ported up to kernel version 3.11 (https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes), because the kernel driver seemed to be not working flawlessly until then.

So my question is: what else could/should I do to get a stable, working wifi connection with that device on my linux box that lasts more than just a few minutes?

Thanks in advance.
