Posted: Wed May 01, 2013 10:07 pm Post subject: Ralink rt2x00 repeatedly tries to connect to wireless |
|
|
I've recently upgraded from the 3.5.7 kernel to the 3.7.10-r1 kernel and my usb wireless adapter is no longer connecting. When I plug it in it still shows all of my neighbor's access points, but when I try and connect to mine network manager shows the two lit up dots like it's about to complete the connection. It stays like this for a while and then says disconnected. It will then instantly try and reconnect, fail, and loop over again. The device in question is a Linksys AE1000 with a Ralink chip in it.
Here's my dmesg.
Code: |

Does anyone have any ideas about what could be wrong? I also upgraded dhcpcd and udev before this upgrade. _________________ Linux amdbuild 3.5.7-gentoo #3 SMP Mon Nov 26 07:43:41 PST 2012 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 635 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

You are probably in need of a kernel with proper ehci support, later 3.7 kernels reported to have problems
either
add =sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.9.0 to /etc/portage.keywords to advance to a newer testing branch kernel (recommended)
or
add >sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-3.6.11-r2 to /etc/portage/package.mask to revert to an older kernel (less recommended)
then
emerge gentoo-sources
you have changed all wlan0 to the new nomenclature? _________________ Defund the FCC. |

I haven't manually changed anything to the new nomenclature. After you were able to help me get udev working again I noticed that my wired connection had changed names. I will switch to 3.9 then and report back on my findings.
You are definitely right about the EHCI issue. If I boot up and I don't have my ethernet cable plugged in network manager keeps trying and failing to connect to my ethernet connection.

I've upgraded and booted into the 3.9.0 kernel. However, I'm still getting the exact same problems with my wireless device (same error messages and same behavior).

On the new 3.9.0 kernel the naming for my USB wireless device is now back to wlan0.
Code: |
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 68:7f:74:f5:db:d8

I haven't manually configured it to use ipv6, that I'm aware of. _________________ Linux amdbuild 3.5.7-gentoo #3 SMP Mon Nov 26 07:43:41 PST 2012 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 635 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

what networking are you attempting? networkmanager --now I see it.
you have emerged wpa_supplicant and (dhcp or dhcpcd)?
networkmanager is in the boot run level? net.wlan0, net.wlp0s19f2u6, wpa_supplicant, dhclient, and dhcpcd are not in any run level?
the networkmanager gui sees the wlan0 interface? _________________ Defund the FCC. |

None of those were on rc. NetworkManager can definitely see wlan0 because it's showing my neighbor's wireless access points. I'm still getting the same behavior after I set networkmanager to load at boot and restarted. _________________ Linux amdbuild 3.5.7-gentoo #3 SMP Mon Nov 26 07:43:41 PST 2012 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 635 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

/usr/sbin/iw wlan0 scan is showing all of my neighbor's access points. Yes, I'm running NetworkManager through the tray icon gui and not over command line.
ifconfig is still showing an ipv6 address for wlan0 which is very strange since I disabled ipv6. I don't have a network manager log there.

After a few frustrating hours of converting my wicd system to network manager (unsuccessfully) and restoring wicd (hard, frustrating, but ultimately successful) I changed course and shifted a vanilla gentoo style networking system to networkmanager. Easy success. As soon as I rebooted and started Gnome I got a large notification that wireless networks were available. A click on the icon showed a couple of my neighbors networks and 2 of my own.from their All I had to do was pick one and enter my PSK code. Seem familiar?

I'm not exactly certain what you're saying. Are you saying this is a network manager problem in general? I tried clearing my stored password and reconnecting along with trying to connect to other networks with my password but neither of them worked.
Also, I've noticed if I unplug my ethernet cable and try and replug it in it also scans that multiple times trying to connect, but it can't. I'm thinking now this is a general problem with my network stack but I'm not certain where it is. Here's the dmesg of an attempt to reconnect:

i ran into major wifi problems with the new naming scheme.... to revert back to wlan0
Code: |
su -c 'touch /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules'
|
if this changes nothing for your situation you can go back to the new names via
Code: |
su -c 'rm /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-name-slot.rules'
