Public bug reported: Till Now, I was running Ubuntu 10.10 & Today, I have installed 12.04 & my wifi stopped working. It was a fresh install(not a upgrade). Wireless gets detected as RT2790 & show available network but doesn't not connect to any wireless network(tried secured & unsecured) for some strange reason.
here is the lspci outout from Ubuntu 10.10 where my wireless card was working: 01:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2860 Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 130f Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 4 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 16 Region 0: Memory at fd9f0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: rt2800pci Kernel modules: rt2860sta, rt2800pci you can find the lspci output of 12.04 where the same card doesn't work as attachment. Interesting thing to notice here is: the same card gets detected as two different chipsets(RT2790 vs RT2860) the Wireless card in question here is: Asus PCE-N10 Wireless PCI Express Adapter(http://www.asus.com/Networks/Wireless_Adapters/PCEN10/) with device id: [1814:0781]. I think chipset in this card is RT2860(not RT2790). I further suspect this wrong detection in Ubuntu 12.04 is the reason that it doesn't connect/work. So, Please let me know if my suspicion is correct? If yes, then what I need to do to fix this mess & get my wireless card working in Ubuntu 12.04?
