I have a Clevo W760 with RTL8191SE (as reported by Windows 7).

When installing the newest driver () I can detect networks with reasonable reception power. But I can never connect to them, not even unencrypted networks. For encrypted networks I only get the password dialog over and over again (looong time intervals inbetween) and for unencrypted networks it tries to connect for several minutes and the finally gives up.

If I use the 8192 Win2k driver with ndiswrapper I can connect to networks. But for my own home network using WPA I can't use the regular password, I have to copy the full encryption key from the wifi security settings in the network manager from another computer (which was logged on via the regular password) and use that as the password.

Also, it seems that this wireless card makes my computer unable to boot any 64-bit Linuxes, however Windows 7 works fine.
