Public bug reported: I have a linksys wmp600n that works out of the box in lucid. In maverick however I have had to (after apport collected the system information) stop modules; rt2800pci, rt2800lib, rt2x00lib, rt2x00pci and rt2x00usb, then restart the rt2860sta module. Blacklisting the modules and restarting the computer also works fine. In lucid lsmod shows only the rt2860sta module running. Before blacklisting these modules, when connecting to any network with wep or wpa (unencrypted not tested) the authentication failed and the wifi password was continually asked for (which I checked numerous times and definitely entered correctly).
