I've been running Kubuntu Precise since Jan 3rd and the 3.2.0-14 kernel and didn't have any problems until the 3.2.0-18 kernel. I've upgraded successively to the -21 kernel, which I am now using and the loss of receive performance is still present.
Dropping my wireless router from 11n to 11g increased the time between drop outs but didn't stop them. Enabling or disabling IPv6 had no effect. As I carry my laptop away from my Tl-1430N wireless router (with three antennas and transmitting at high power) the signal strength drops from 90% (2.5 meters away) to20% (20 meters away), upon which the rtl8192ce disconnects from the AP. While I am setting here less than 3 meters from my AP with only 92% I have 5 neighbors who are getting 100% signal strength on my Acer 7739. There was an announcement claiming that the "loss of receive performance" had been fixed in 3.2.0-14. On March 30, 2012 GregH announced that the same problem had been patched in the 3.0-stable kernel. Perhaps someone with a little cred in that area should tell him that a regression has crept into the kernel since -19. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/902557 Title: Wireless not working in 12.04 for rtl8192ce (RTL8188CE) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/902557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
