[Bug 496093] Re: [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks

[Elton Woo]

@ Chris Barker: first of all thank you for the useful guidance you provide on your blog. As I follow this thread, I am also posting help to the ubuntuforums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1473629
In the ubuntu forums the section with networking is high traffic due to the numerous problems and complaints related to connectivity. It does not give linux a good image, and *particularly* ubuntu ("linux for the masses"?) is getting bad press.

WRT RaLink and Realtek, I am pleased to inform you that these manufacturers *are* actively supporting linux. 
Cf: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2  
and  http://www.opendrivers.com/company/2358/realtek-free-driver-download.html 
As such, it clearly shows that they are indeed "open-source friendly"!

respectfully,
