[Bug 356071] Re: Wi-Fi WAP/WAP2 Connection Failure

 

Jason Cruickshank, 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 kernel 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-v3.12-rc3

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.

** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 638791
   old and faulty rt2860sta [The self compiled rt2860sta works.]

** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Wi-Fi WAP/WAP2 Connection Failure

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Desktop 9.04 Beta

  Ralink Technology, Corp. 802.11n wireless card will not connect to
  wireless network if WAP/WAP2 security is used.  It will properly ask
  for password and attempt to connect but always fail.  Rebooted router
  several times, tried changing password, no change in result.  Card
  will properly connect if no security is used.  Installed all available
  updates as of Saturday morning but no change in result.

  This is still an upgrade from Ubuntu Desktop 8.10 since in that
  version the default install will not even detect the wireless cards
  existence.
