Public bug reported: The wireless driver shipped with the current Lucid Beta 1 will find some (but not all) wireless networks and allow you to connect but will not allow traffic to be sent and you will be kicked off within seconds/minutes.
Installing the latest driver from: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=230&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true Fixes the issue. Workaround instructions for anybody else experiencing this issue: Download driver package sudo apt-get install build-essential tar -xvzf rtl8192* cd rtl8192* sudo make sudo rmmod r8192se_pci sudo ./wlan0up Because of the way the drivers are installed in Ubuntu doing a sudo make install doesn't seem to help, on reboot you will need to perform the rmmod and wlan0up scripts again. Please update or backport the driver as it is required for the wireless to work out of the box! ProblemType: Bug AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.21.
