Subject: rtl8192cu: unreliable connection
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 11:07:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150220100702.GA7400@pmhahn.de> (raw)

Hello,

I have an rtl8192cu based USB WLAN dongle from D-Link, which works very
unreliable for me.
It is not directly recognized by my 3.18.7 linux kernel and I currently have

> # cat /etc/modprobe.d/wlan-pmhahn.conf 
> install rtl8192cu /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install rtl8192cu $CMDLINE_OPTS ; echo "2001 330D" >/sys/bus/usb/drivers/rtl8192cu/new_id
> options rtl8192cu swenc=1

I'm able to transmit some data, but normally after some time
opening new TCP connections (especially SSL/TLS encrypted ones) fail.
Ping on the other hand does not show any significant problems:

> 953 packets transmitted, 950 received, 0% packet loss, time 953130ms
> rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 43.433/75.560/457.843/34.281 ms

dmesg shows this repeating pattern:
