[Bug 1220007] Re: RTL8192CU continually reconnecting

 

I received a response from upstream [0]. He believed the issue is "a bad
interaction with the Ubuntu front-end to wireless." Doesn't Ubuntu just
use Network-Manager?  Are there any Ubuntu specific modifications?

A patch was provided, but it is not expected to correct the issue.  I am
going to attempt to get the latest source, apply the patch, and compile
the module myself.

Title:
  RTL8192CU continually reconnecting

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When using the built in rtl8192cu driver, it continually
  disconnects/reconnects every couple of seconds making network use
  unusable.  The proprietary driver works just fine.
