[Bug 344022] Re: RaLink RT2860 won't connect to 802.11n WPA2 networks
Troy Ready, 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 (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. 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-rc7
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.]
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Triaged => Incomplete

Title:
RaLink RT2860 won't connect to 802.11n WPA2 networks
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
A driver for RaLink RT2860 cards (found in my Eee PC 901, EEE PC 1000,
and elsewhere) was added to Ubuntu for Jaunty (I'm specifically using
Alpha 6 now). It works well for my 802.11g network with WEP
encryption.
However, I can't get it to connect to my 802.11n network with WPA2
encryption. It's not an intermittent issue, and I know the network
works because I can connect to it in Windows on the same machine.
The basic logs don't seem to show much useful information; please help
me debug it further!

Update (1/27/10):
This bug exists in Karmic Koala as well.
A commonly reported forum fix is to upgrade to the 2.2.0.0 version of
the driver (RaLink website: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
). The current Ubuntu/Debian version of the driver is 1.8.0.0 . It
would be *really* awesome if someone put the upgraded drivers into the
Ubuntu repos.
