Subject: [gentoo-user] kernel 3.2.x has problems with NetGear WNDA3100 wireless USB dongle
Date: Tue, 06 Mar 2012 21:28:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1331065729.6269.26.camel@tux.homenetwork> (raw)

Hi,

I have come across a strange problem ...

I use a NetGear WNDA3100 USB wireless dongle which is using the kernel
module carl9170 as driver.

It is working fine for a little while, some minutes, then it stops
receiving/transmitting anything at all. If I unplug and insert it again
it works fine a couple of minutes before it stops receiving/transmitting
anything again. The LED is stuck on pink but not flashing blue/pink as
it usually do when receiving/transmitting data.

This is when using a 3.2.x version of gentoo-sources, if I use 3.1.10 of
gentoo-sources it is working fine for hours but sometimes shuts down
totally and the LED is off and only comes alive again if I unplug and
insert it.

Any ideas?

  BR / P-E
