Hi, I have 2 Edimax EW-7108PCg cards (rt61pci driver), one in gutsy with hardy kernel and another in hardy beta with all updates.
Both systems are connected to the same access point (with WPA1/AES) and the connection doesn't fall as it did with the gutsy kernel, but it's still inconstant in signal detection and performance. The information about the connection is also wrong, I think. This is what i see with iwconfig: wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"Casa" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:18:F3:98:D3:C4 Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=27 dBm Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B Link Quality=48/100 Signal level=-40 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 the quality is varies from 50% to 90% with the wireless card and the access point in the same room and the bit rate is always 1Mb/s!!! Copying a music album (~100Mb) from one computer to the other takes arround 15 min. Too slow! So, for me rt61pci from hardy is more stable, but much more slow than in gutsy. -- Ralink rt2400 / rt2500 / rt2570 / rt61 / rt73 do not work out of the box in Gutsy/Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134660 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
