  • Comment: Extreme latency with moderate link utilization

    I have the same problem. I tried changing encription to WEP, WPA, WPA2 and turning encryption off. Always the same problem. I can't get more than 120KB/s. On windows and OS X problem don't exist (transfer about 1.2MB/s, no incrased latency). Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:8189 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

    Hi Folks, Please see my reply in the other post. I had the same issues like you do but managed to resolve it. Make sure you have NO other r8180 or r8185 .ko files in your /lib/modules/.... path. can you post your dmesg? Thanks.

    Hi Folks, I thought of sharing my experience. Yesterday. I've managed to install PCI wifi card with rtl8185 chipset. (Encore card). It is working very well on my Ubuntu 9.04 + kernel 2.6.28.

  • Extreme latency with moderate link utilization

    When downloading any large file over a sustained period at any rate greater than ~40KB/sec, latency on the link (tested to the access point) skyrockets - shooting from 1-2 ms up to 300-1000ms, with short spikes up to 4000ms. the machine is not cpu bound during this period. as soon as the large transfer completes, latency drops back to normal. other machines on the same wireless network do not...

  • New rtl8185 driver released 6-25-09

    Realtek released a new driver for rtl8185 June 25 2009 for linux. Here's a link to it... http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/ExpressFTPSite.aspx?DownTypeID=3&DownID=435&PFid=1&Conn=5 I compiled it in Jaunty but I'm unable to connect to WPA2 home router no matter what I try. The signal strength is great (90+ %) unlike default rtl8180 driver in Jaunty (0 to 30% fluctuating wildly...

  • Followup: RE: No WireLess Extensions on Debian 5.0

    Which driver are you trying to use? The driver provided on this project is for 8187L (at least I haven't gotten it to work with my 8187B yet, anyway). Try the driver you can find here: http://rtl8187b.sourceforge.net/ This isn't a very good driver, and I can't get it to insert when I build it on Debian with 2.6.26 kernel (lenny), but it works on earlier kernels (for me 2.6.24, one of the...
