[Bug 1298802] Re: 2357:0100 USB Wifi TP-Link WN8200ND cannot associate to access points

 

Peter Schüller, as a potential WORKAROUND, would using the driver
provided by Realtek work via
http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#2772
?

** Description changed:

  The Usb Wifi dongle TP-Link WN8200ND (rtl8192cu driver) does not connect
  with a default 14.04 trusty updated one or two days ago from the
  internet.
  
  If I add the dkms module that replaces the builtin driver (see
  instructions and source code in [1]) then I can connect to some access
  points (like my cellphone tethering access point) but not to other
  access points where my laptop connects without any problems.
  
- This bug was reported with apport-bug --save on 14.04 and reported with
- apport-bug 12.04 so the additional data might have some problems (the
- dialog box looks very different on both systems and 14.04 seems to show
- much more logfiles) but I could not report from 14.04 directly.
