[Bug 1186253] Re: 2357:0100 TP-Link 8200ND USB Wireless adapter won't authenticate [rtl812cu]

 

@Christopher: Sorry I didn't update my bug, only posted on AskUbuntu.

"End of my story? Larry never found the time to investigate the issue. I
returned the item as it dropped connection sometimes on Windows as well.
They just refunded it and that's it. So yeah. This is a terrible chip,
no one should buy a device equipped with such."

Of course the bug is a bug, so if anyone is willing to help investigate matters further, feel free.
I didn't ask for a refund, they just did, without any notice. Not like I mind.
(Time for a "free" N wifi. Which I bet will be this bad, too. hah.)

Title:
  2357:0100 TP-Link 8200ND USB Wireless adapter won't authenticate
  [rtl812cu]

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This device uses an rtl8192cu Realtek driver.

  Authentication fails with a WPA2 router, with:
  # wlan1: authenticate with .:.:.:.:..
  # wlan1: direct probe to ... (try 1/3)
  # wlan1: direct probe to ... (try 2/3)
  # wlan1: direct probe to ... (try 3/3)
  # authentication with ... timed out.

  And this goes on and on. No other messages, just this one. Twice, every time I try to connect with it.
