Title:
  168c:002b eMachines e525 Ubuntu cant connect to wifi repeater

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have TL-WR340G router my repeater TL-WA500G set up to work BUT works
  with Windows, and Android, but not in Ubuntu. For 1/2 year I've tried
  different settings and setups using not bridge not repeater but
  universal repeater setting. So now i have HEX 128bit open WEP key (of
  course my repeater has only wep repeating or no key repeating
  function) and repeater has same HEX 128bit open WEP. Android was
  always even with non-compatible options able to connect. Like Hex key
  shared repeated open but on Android i put ASCII. Now i just tried on
  Windows and its working. So theres big problem in Ubuntu- cant connect
  no way to repeater.
