[patch] Add support for 2001:3c1e (D-Link DWA-125 rev B1) USB Wi-Fi adapter

[Maia Everett]

D-Link DWA-125/B1 is a relatively new USB Wi-Fi adapter, using a Ralink chipset supported by the rt2800usb driver. Currently, to work around the problem (it's missing in all present kernel versions, up to and including 3.7.x), I had to add this to /etc/rc.local:

echo 2001 3c1e >> /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2800usb/new_id

After that, the device works without problems.

The attached patch is trivial and simply adds the new USB ID to the list of devices handled by rt2800usb.

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. From a terminal window please run:

apport-collect 1085351

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

[Maia Everett (linneris)]

There are no logs to gather or attach. The issue is that the device is not recognized by the system, even with the rt2800usb driver preloaded with modprobe.

@Maia,

Will you be sending this patch upstream? If so, Raring will pick it up when rebased to v3.8. Also, when submitting the patch upstream, please cc linux-stable, so the stable releases pick up this patch as well.

Looks like this is already applied to our Raring 13.04 kernel:

Ubuntu-3.8.0-0.1~347^2~17^2~25

I'm marking this Fix Released for Raring.

[Luis Henriques (henrix)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel for Quantal in -proposed solves the problem (3.5.0-24.37). Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-quantal' to 'verification-done-quantal'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

[Maia Everett (linneris)]

Confirming as fixed with kernel 3.5.0-24.37 from -proposed.

[Adam Conrad (adconrad)]

The verification of this Stable Release Update has completed successfully and the package has now been released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regresssions.
