Comment 13 for bug 288948

I cannot get the compat-wireless to work.
It keeps failing at the WEP passphrase. (I cannot test without a key on my config so I do not know what would happen in open mode).
The dialog box ask for the passphrase and then tries to connect but fails and reopen to ask the passphrase again.
I had put the latest firmware from linuxwireless.

I then sudo make uninstall to revert to at least a working connection.

Also am now running with the linux-backports-modules-intrepid modules added but it seems this has absolutely no effect. I am back with almost no upload speed. (Only testing source I know is the www.testdevelocidad.es website)

Also I do not understand how I coul try the solution outlined by Daniel T Chen. If it is a patch to the kernel module, I would need more hints to be able to try that.

Thanks for your help.
