[Bug 1030858] Re: 0bda:8176 RTL8188CUS does not connect to wireless networks

 

Seems not to be okay.
Installed 14.04-2 lts and using wifi usb dongle with rtl 8188UC chipset.

There are many many connection cuts. Mostly only the first request goes
through, maybe a second. Then it takes ages to load something. YOu have
to reconnect or even reboot to be able to use the net again....
