Sorry, I'm not used to bugreports in this format, so please bear with me.

Are you using a staging wlan driver? Can you attach your full dmesg log and provide a short description of the problem and the output of "lspci -v"?

Thank you!

Comment 4 Baron Flopsy 2010-12-16 18:29:10 UTC

Using Ubuntu Desktop 10.10
Have tried current Stable and Unstable Kernel
Both have same results...

Am having to use eth0 to connect atm
as wlan does not work...
At first it looks like wlan is working
Routers are showing up but will not connect.
After selecting a router to connect to
it tries over and over to connect but never does

Let me know If I can give any more information

Cheers
Flopsy

Regressions in staging drivers are not eligible for tracking, dropping from
the list.
