Also affects distribution/package Nominate for series Bug Description Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric ocelot Desktop 64-AMD. Lenovo Ideapad s205 After blacklisting acer_wmi in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf wifi seems to work and can connect. see Bug: #875659 But Network speed drops very fast and after1-2 minutes it is stable under 50-70Kb/s, and other devices on the wifi network error module rt2860sta looses their connection. Bug #651778 is an older bug (unsolved) about R3090 but concerns RT3090 being unstable, it does not appear to be the same bug. On Ubuntu forums there are several threads with different solutions: Installing older version of Markus Heberling's Ralink 3090 driver, install compat-wireless driver, but some solutions are not consistent for different users on the same hardware. WORKAROUND: In Oneiric with kernel >= 3.0.0.13, blacklist acer_wmi , and use the rt2x00 drivers from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-backports-modules-3.0.0 from 22nd November 2011. Add to /etc/rc.local: iwconfig wlan0 power off WORKAROUND: In release prior to Precise, I installed this driver: https://launchpad.net/~markus-tisoft...0~ppa1_all.deb It did not work with newer driver. Blacklisted "acer_wmi" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf Added "rt3090sta" to /etc/modules Original source: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11391544&postcount=20 WORKAROUND: In Precise, once the Ralink driver is downloaded, unpack and edit the file ../common/cmm_wpa.c : Code: UCHAR PrimaryRsnie; BOOLEAN bMixCipher = FALSE; // indicate the pairwise and group cipher are different UCHAR p_offset; - WPA_MIX_PAIR_CIPHER FlexibleCipher = MIX_CIPHER_NOTUSE; // it provide the more flexible cipher combination in WPA-WPA2 and TKIPAES mode + WPA_MIX_PAIR_CIPHER FlexibleCipher = WPA_TKIPAES_WPA2_TKIPAES; // it provide the more flexible cipher combination in
