Hi folks,

Sorry for crossposting... but after a sleepless night I managed to make
my connection working and stable. I can confirm the post #275, thanks to
Nuno for the hint.

Running Ubuntu Karmic (9.10) 64bit on Asus EEE 1201N with rtl8192se wifi
interface.

A few days ago I bought a new wifi router, 802.11n capable. Since that
time the connection was a nightmare. Drop-outs every few minutes, kernel
panics, cold resets. I tried many driver versions from both
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/401126 and
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/, no joy. Ndiswrapper does not work
for this network interface on the 64bit OS.

Finally, switching the router from WPA2 to WPA did the magic. Now
running the latest driver from the Realtek web site, the connection has
been rock stable, about 30 hours without a single drop-out, 150 Mbps.

Either the WPA2 implementation is faulty in the device driver or there
is a coincidence of the WPA2 and the 802.11n standard.

Cheers!
Ivo
