Bug Description
After upgrading to 12.04 Beta 1, from 11.10 , rt2x00 wireless driver is stalling quit often in AP mode.
I am running hostapd 0.7.3, and clients are able to connect and browse small web pages, however, if a client attempts to download a large file over wifi, the connection will stall. Other clients are unaffected.
There is nothing displayed in dmesg or syslog regarding the issue. After a stall, the client must wait or re-associate with the AP to re-activate the connection.
AP mode with rt2x00 driver was working fine in 11.10
There are some recent posts regarding the issue, and a patch was released http://

Changing target package to linux (the rt2x00 drivers are part of the linux kernel). This separate old rt2x00 package is just a red herring misdirecting the unsuspecting bug reporter. It does not seem to do anything useful anymore (see https:/ /launchpad. net/ubuntu/ +source/ rt2x00/ +publishinghist ory ).
