I am trying to find out whether the Realtek rtl8192se is known to be stable and reliable in AP mode. It certainly became functional with kernel 3.0 and I can get the interface into master mode, but whenever I try to connect to it my laptop reports connection timeouts. Digging a little more with wireshark, it seems that authentication packets exchanged, but no association packets are coming through...
I can confirm this issue. With another chip/device I have an AP running fine for years now, but with my new system I have been unsuccessful. I have tried a variety of settings, and I am quite confident that it will not work until the driver/firmware is fixed.
Realtek just released a new driver, but until now I was unable to download and test it (permission denied):
