Bug Description

This is known issue. It has been there moths already.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62781

I had to do linux reinstall and I had 13.04 kubuntu. It doesnt have this issue.

The kernel it uses is 3.8.0.12 generic.

I don't know if it's pure or patched.

I had several different kernels and they all have this broken.

The wifi card spams dmesg

1792.118227] ieee80211 phy0: rt2800usb_txdone: Warning - Got TX status for an empty queue 2, dropping

and similar lines

and on heavy use it drops the connection. Also those spam messages impact the download speed. It's better on 3.8 kernel than newer.

I did install linux mint 17, which has newer kernel. But it has the same problem. I haven't seen a kernel after 3.8 series that doesnt have this issue.

Changed in linuxmint:
