vword4u-g: I wish I knew how to fix it. I'm facing exactly the same problem as you. Since I started using Larry's git driver, I need to try reconnecting for 15-30 times (ie removing and inserting modules, killing wpa_supplicant etc), until I get a reliable connection. That usually takes 10+ minutes. The initial connection/authentication error has become frustratingly annoying with the git driver.
And the "managed=true" fix I suggested in #80 no longer helps. The fix changes the error message, but doesn't reduce the number of retrials. Another observation: I travelled with my laptop last week. The same initial connection error happened on other networks (public airport Wifi, etc). It disappeared faster than on my home network (similar to what Sascha said in #140). So the error to a large extent isn't specific to my home network setup. I was using the staging driver in kernel 3.16 at that time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1239578 Title: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b] Status in HWE Next Project: Confirmed Status in HWE Next trusty series: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Open this bug to trace device driver RTL8192EE.
