I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with bleeding edge compat-wireless. Pinging often doesn't even resolve DNS, if it does and I let it run for a while it reports around 50% packets dropped. The Airport Extreme basestation stats shows a stable ca. -70dBm connection. The local wireless network performance is excellent with other network devices. For example I stream MPEG2-TS video just fine with another 802.11g machine. Also tested the USB dongle on a Windows 7 machine, and it worked after installing the appropriate driver. What are the next steps to debug this problem? dmesg with irrelevant lines removed: [ 15.092812] cfg80211: World regulatory domain updated: [ 15.092819] (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp) [ 15.092823] (2402000 KHz - 2472000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) [ 15.092827] (2457000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 20000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) [ 15.092831] (2474000 KHz - 2494000 KHz @ 20000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) [ 15.092834] (5170000 KHz - 5250000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) [ 15.092838] (5735000 KHz - 5835000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm) [ 16.282712] phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel' [ 16.283937] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy0::radio [ 16.283983] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy0::assoc [ 16.285573] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy0::quality [ 16.286528] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt73usb [ 16.370910] type=1505 audit(1281736368.123:5): operation="profile_replace" pid=630 name="/sbin/dhclient3" [ 16.371640] type=1505 audit(1281736368.123:6): operation="profile_replace" pid=630 name="/usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action" [ 16.372403] type=1505 audit(1281736368.127:7): operation="profile_replace" pid=630 name="/usr/lib/connman/scripts/dhclient-script" [ 16.470082] type=1505 audit(1281736368.223:8): operation="profile_load" pid=631 name="/usr/bin/evince" [ 16.479936] type=1505 audit(1281736368.231:9): operation="profile_load" pid=631 name="/usr/bin/evince-previewer" [ 16.486174] type=1505 audit(1281736368.239:10): operation="profile_load" pid=631 name="/usr/bin/evince-thumbnailer" [ 16.562356] type=1505 audit(1281736368.315:11): operation="profile_load" pid=635 name="/usr/sbin/tcpdump" [ 17.159682] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [ 24.951478] wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:19:e3:32:71:f6 by local choice (reason=3) [ 24.953549] wlan0: authenticate with 00:19:e3:32:71:f6 (try 1) [ 24.960957] wlan0: authenticated [ 24.962030] wlan0: associate with 00:19:e3:32:71:f6 (try 1) [ 24.965056] wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:19:e3:32:71:f6 (capab=0x31 status=0 aid=1) [ 24.965064] wlan0: associated [ 24.984546] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready [ 24.984714] cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: NL -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
