Comment 28 for bug 567016

I want report success too. My box is ASUS Eee-1201T with Realtek 8192se adapter (discussed in some duplicate threads).
Installing pristine 10.04 netbook remix did not work, but upgrading it to 2.6.32-22 made wireless alive to some degree. Scanning worked, I could see my neighbors routers, but I could not connect to mine.
After some experiments I figured out that I can connect when I set my router to WPA/WPA2 Personal & TKIP.
Setting router to AES or AES+TKIP makes connect attempt failing after long (minutes) trying.

Bear in mind, that I have a desktop ubuntu install of the same version, and it works with router in AES mode just fine (Zonet ZEW2500P usb adapter). So, OS is the same, router is the same, and only HW and drivers are different.

Also something unexplainable happen to open (unencrypted) router connections. They failed too ( I tried 2 of them). But after I managed to connect to my own router, I checked open connections and was able to connect to open ones. I rebooted severl times in between, so it hardly can be wireless card stuck in a strange state.

So if your symptoms are: scanning works but you can't connect, please report your *router* settings too. And give it a try WPA/TKIP.
