Comment 15 for bug 408165

Not so great news, though: After working for a short while initially, it now quickly fails each time it starts connecting to a network, causing the network-manager utilities to hang until the OS is rebooted. It could conceivably start to work again temporarily if the machine were completely powered off, but it may also have been a mere coincidence that it ever worked in the first place.

Incidentally, the device was sold to me as "WUSB-600N-EU", which is reported to work with Linux, and not as "WUSB600N ver.2", which is what is actually printed on the device. Linux users should probably be wary of buying either of these until the driver issue is resolved.
