Testing on the lastest daily kernel iso, the last link you gave me: the AWUS036NHR did not list AP's with only AES wireless security. Only AP's that were configured for TKIP. Also I tried to manully conect to AES secure AP, and it would not connect. perhaps same problem for bug # 1170463.
All during testing the AWUS036NHR indicator light was on continually, which is not normal operating. It should blink on and off. So that jogged my memory. I did download and installed the lastest driver from realtek wireless for ubuntu and that made everything work, back to ubuntu version 12.04. The only thing was I could not pull the adapter cord out while computer was in ubuntu as it would freeze and lock everything up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1210691 Title: 0bda:817f When disconnecting WiFi USB adapter AWUS036NHR, system locks up Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: whether using powered usb hub or not, same thing. using included double usb cord: no difference using extra power usb connector or not. But using signal usb connector, always the same result. data transfer rate slows and increases more than the previous version "AWUS036NHR" when using wavemon, no indication of signal strengh loss. used watching video streaming.
