The same request applies to kernel-image-std-def-3.14.36-alt1 . (With that kernel, my adapter work very bad, too.) +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #30856 +++ kernel-image-un-def-3.19.2-alt1 I have read that there alternative versions of the driver -- https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/issues/105 . The one currently included in the package is: filename: /lib/modules/3.19.2-un-def-alt1/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/r8188eu.ko version: v4.1.4_6773.20130222 author: Realtek Semiconductor Corp. lwfinger has 4.1.8 and other versions -- https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/issues/100 . He ships his versions under the name 8188eu to avoid a conflict. The current r8188eu works very bad in my case. I'm not sure why, but the lwfinger's one might be better. Why not include it?
What does "works badky" mean in my case? It means that 50% of pings are lost. It means that downloading from ftp.altlinux.org goes at speed about 50kB/s whereas another nearby computer connected to the same WiFi network does this at 1100kB/s. And it means that there is a long waiting for establishing connections, which makes it almost impossible to use. Any log messages?.. Perhaps, this stuff from dmesg gives some information: [ 94.088489] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 94.090635] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp0s26u1u1: link is not ready [ 94.226706] NET: Registered protocol family 17 [ 96.884970] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 96.919094] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 96.989283] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 134.243616] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 134.253956] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 134.254695] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 134.255442] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 134.256320] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 136.235031] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 150.290275] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 152.324974] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 174.352399] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 180.768989] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 183.740954] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 186.917033] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 190.196169] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 199.253810] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 234.376214] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 234.386445] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 234.387195] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 234.387945] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 236.550274] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 256.437811] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 256.447901] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 256.448647] R8188EU: ERROR ap recv disassoc reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.489133] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 258.528910] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(14) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.535371] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 258.544028] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.544762] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.545528] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.546414] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 258.547139] R8188EU: ERROR sta recv deauth reason code(7) sta:5c:d9:98:66:55:72 [ 260.124056] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 261.958252] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 263.505266] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 277.347358] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 293.118729] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 302.343752] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 318.018032] R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc [ 328.460918] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 363.256763] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 365.250693] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 403.366329] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 405.418268] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 441.468172] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 443.535392] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 475.554920] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 477.553093] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 525.687348] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 527.762811] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 561.786150] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 563.830345] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 599.884132] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming [ 601.947717] R8188EU: ERROR assoc success [ 627.959475] R8188EU: ERROR linked_status_chk(wlp0s26u1u1) disconnect or roaming
