[Bug 480477] Re: [rt2860] frequent connection instability/loss on not optimal network quality.

 

Philip Muškovac, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [rt2860] frequent connection instability/loss on not optimal network
  quality.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Here's what I know about this issue right now:
  When I'm sitting besides the AP and the connection quality is excellent everything's fine. But it I move away a bit and the quality drops to some < 60% then I get random hangs in my connection using network-manager-gnome and knetworkmanager reconnects all the time. Also possibly related is the fact that on excellent quality the connection remains fine once I close the netbook lid, but on lower quality the connection is permanently lost and both gnome and kde ask for the network PW when opening the lid again.
