Ubuntu Networking :: Linksys WUSB600N Cannot Get Recognized
Sep 3, 2010
I think lightning may have killed it. It was working fine. Now I cant get it recognized no matter what I do. It also quit working in Win XP where I never had a problem with it because it had its own connection software.
dmesg yields this-
RTUSB disconnect successfully

My OS is Linux Xubuntu 11.04 (32 bits) and I'm trying to get Linksys Wusb600n network adapter to work. I followed this post and did all that was written in it... almost. When i came to blacklisting, I blacklisted all drivers that starts with rtx (where x is any digit). Here are lines that I pasted in blacklist.conf:
Code:
blacklist rt2860sta
blacklist rt2870sta
blacklist rt2x00usb
blacklist rt2500usb
blacklist rt73usb
blacklist rt2800usb
blacklist rt2x00lib
blacklist rt2x00pci
[Code].....
The problem: I do see all available networks. So I guess... it somehow works. Anyway, problem is that it does not connect successfully to my network. I click on it - it asks my password. I enter it and click 'Connect'. Nothing, except that network icon is started to like spin around (trying to connect, I guess), happens. After few minutes, it asks for password.... again. I enter it and all starts from the beginning. Its like a loop! Note: I don't have any other things installed except linux-firmware-nonfree_1.9_all.deb and, don't know how successfully, but RT3572USB 2.5.0.0.

Im having another problem with my wireless in Maverick, Im at my wits end with this thing and dont know what to do next. I followed Dev0's from this thread.And now when ever I start my computer I get a notification that says "Linksys C" connected. Then only a few seconds later it says Disconnected and then from then on every few minutes the Password prompt pops up and then I enter my password and then it just keeps going in that cycle until I click cancel.

I see a bunch of posts about WUSB600N, often telling folks to download and compile proprietary drivers from ralink's website. With Ubuntu 11.04, getting WUSB600N to work might be as simple as disabling rt2870sta (for rev1). If you have rev 2 card, driver to disable is I believe rt3572sta. Even if you need to recompile drivers by hand, the right thing to do is to first try nightly build of rt2x00 drivers from [URL], and fall back to ralink provided drivers only if things do not work out with rt2x00 drivers. I saw recent updates on rt2x00 mailing list for rt3572 chip, give it a try if you have rev 2 card.
WUSB600N rev 1 (rt2870 chip) should "just work" with rt2x00 driver included with 2.6.38 kernel in Ubuntu 11.04. At least it works for me. You may need to blacklist rt2870sta driver from staging directory so that it does not load and interfere with rt2x00 drivers. There's one small annoying issue with power save mode on rt2870 chip when rt2x00 is in use, which seems to have just been fixed upstream. Most users will never notice it, but if you do notice card re-connecting to AP every 10-20 minutes or so, simply disable power saving, and all will be smooth (iwconfig wlan0 power off). If you have an older Ubuntu release (kernel 2.6.35) and rev 1 card, you should be able to download nightly build of rt2x00 driver from [URL]. It worked for me just fine with previous Ubuntu releases.

I started a fedora 15 live cd last night, and at the top right corner, i noticed that wireless was not active. Right mouse button on the internet icon showed me that fedoar recognized the usb device as it is,, a Linksys WUSB600N wireless lan.
However, fedora warned me that the firmware was not available, therefore i was not able to configure the WUSB600N. To be specific,, it's the V2 version.
My question is,, does this device work with linux fedora? i assume that i need to install the required firmware in order to use the device.

After much tiddling'n'fiddling I finally got my new Linksys WUSB600N v2 working. Contrary to many posts, mine did NOT work with either the standard rt2870sta module, nor the updated version from the driver:wireless repo. Also the rt2870 version from the ralink website didn' t work. After a days worth of Googling I came across this post. The bottom line?
1. Download rt3572 from the Ralink website.
2. Add {USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0079)}, /* WUSB600N v2 */ to common/rtusb_dev_id.c
3. Follow README_STA
I did not install firmware packages. And be sure the rt2800sta module doesn' t get loaded. (you could just remove it, I suppose.)

I have a friend with an old, still-working laptop that wants to switch to linux. (Dell Inspiron 7000 PII) I loaded Lubuntu because it's an old machine and has only 512MB of memory. The laptop has no built-in ethernet or wireless. As the title says, he has an EC2T card with it. I've tried to get lubuntu to recognize the card but it's a no-go. I tried the EC2T card on a Windows laptop at my workplace and Windows recognized the card immediately; I was able to surf the web with it.
It looks like at one time it worked with [URL]... and that individual didn't get an answer. Other troubleshooting I've done:I've ran the 'Hardware Drivers' utility and it found no drivers. I tried lspci and the EC2T card isn't listed. I tried a wireless pcmcia card from my workplace and it worked so the laptop's card slot is functioning; lspci does list the wireless card.

I have a laptop running 11.2 with an internal Broadcom-based Wi-Fi card that's working fine. I'm trying to get 802.11n going with the WUSB600N. The USB ID on this device is 1737:0079. I believe this means it's a "V2" with an RT3572 chip.
No driver loads for this device when it's plugged in. If I do a "modprobe rt2870sta", a driver loads, and syslog shows "rtusb init" and "usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2870". But ifconfig -a doesn't show a new network interface. I've also tried building the RT3572 driver from the manufacturer's web site. It builds fine, and modprobe will load it, but I get the same results as the rt2870sta driver.

I'm new to openSUSE and as a matter of fact, to linux too. I've got a Linksys WUSB600N wireless adapter which used to work fine with some live versions of linux that I was testing out before moving onto suse... Each time, upon booting using live CDs, I used to copy the driver I had downloaded from:
SpeedShare - Download rt2870-kernel-2.6.24-nemesis.tar.bz2
Then 'make' and get into the driver's os/linux directory to load the driver using 'insmod rt2870sta.ko' Now, upon doing a 'make' and 'make install', followed by the 'insmod rt2870sta.ko', I get the error saying:
insmod: error inserting 'rt2870sta.ko': -1 Invalid module format
I tried doing 'modprobe -rv rt2870sta' and didn't get any error messages. But while doing 'modprobe -v', this error shows up: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2870sta.ko

I'm trying to install a Linksys WUSB600n dual-band USB wireless-N adapter onto a desktop system with opensuse 11.1 installed; this system will be migrating to a back porch with no cabling access, hence the wireless solution. Everything works fine under Windows XP, but on Linux, not so much. Hardware info is as follows; there is no "Wireless LAN" entry, but there is a USB entry:
99: udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_1737_71_noserial'
info.subsystem = 'usb_device'
usb_device.vendor = 'Linksys'
usb_device.bus_number = 1 (0x1)
linux.subsystem = 'usb'
usb_device.product = 'Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Network Adapter'
info.product = 'Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Network Adapter'

I have a Linksys WPC300N v1 "Wireless-N Notebook Adapter" which uses the Broadcom 4329 chipset. Is there a way to troubleshoot and configure this card to use wl, b43, ssb? Preferrably via CLI. I have a couple years of CLI experience in Debian/derivatives (but only in my spare time ).
I have this card recognized and running adequately in Debian (and derivatives) using the 'wl' driver (sometimes supplied by debian.org, other times by broadcom.com). The one hint at a solution for this particular card/chipset I have found searching the OpenSUSE (SuSE for short?) forum points me to using ndiswrapper, which I've never used nor care to if it requires wine. I'm trying to ultimately connect to a b/g/n WPA-1 TKIP wlan.
lspci -v:
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43XG (rev 01)
Subsystem: Linksys Device 0058
Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 11
Memory at f4000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=16K]
lsmod | grep 'ssb' returns nothing (neither do 'b43' or 'wl') but 'pcmcia' returns:
pcmcia_core 41748 3 pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic
When configuring this card in Debian, I first plugged in the card which resulted in some hard disk activity but the LED was not lit. After installing the driver, the LED came on but no network. After configuring the network, it works 'adequately' (no roaming mode) using the wpa_supplicant package and is readily identified during init.
This is not mission critical by any means so I'm not in a hurry and willing to try almost anything. However, this is an old laptop so I'm even somewhat surprised that KDE4 is running as well as it is (KDE 3.5.10 runs quite well, which is more than I can say for the latest Gnome DE; xfce "screams" relatively). Dell Latitude C-610 PIII-M 1.2 GHz 512 KB cache 512 MB RAM (YaST2 reports this as a C-640 but this does not agree with the BIOS splash). The display is an ATI Radeon LY using the 'radeon' server (default). I don't do compositing here. ;-)

I've read many threads about the Linksys WUSB600n (both versions), and tried the suggested solutions to no avail in 32-bit Ubuntu 10.04. Compiling my own drivers, adding items to the blacklist, and even a clumsy driver transplant from 32-bit 9.10 have all failed. So here's the sitch: I have a Linksys WUSB600n v1 that works perfectly in 9.10 with only the minor modification posted by chili555 in this thread
HTML Code: [URL] That solution was: "
Code:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Add three lines:
Code:
blacklist rt2800usb
blacklist rt2x00usb
blacklist rt2x00lib
"
I've tried the same in a clean install of 10.04, but no connection is made and a prompt comes up every few minutes asking for the password. I've used the included rt2870 driver in 9.10 without problems. My wireless-N network uses WPA2 personal encryption, which has never given me issues. The usb id of my adapter, per lsusb, is ID 1737:0071

I have a WUSB600N v2 and it is working great for me. Here is all you have to do. Go here and download the RT3572USB driver [URL] The file you download is called 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2[1].3.0.0.tar.bz2 expand it with the command "tar xjf 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2[1].3.0.0.tar.bz2"
open the file os/linux/config.mk and edit the following lines: Change HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=n to HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y and Change HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=n to HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
Next edit the file common/rtusb_dev_id.c and add the USB ID of the card to it. {USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0079)}, /* WUSB600Nv2 */
sudo make
sudo make install
reboot and your done.
If you have added the USB device to any other drivers following other threads you will want to either remove that line and recompile those drivers OR black list those drivers. After doing the above this NIC is working great for me in Ubuntu 9.10 and getting N speeds.

I was wondering if anyone figured out the WUSB600N ver1 with Ubuntu 10.4 yet. It's the chipset rt2870sta which works perfectly on Ubuntu 9.10 after blacklisting the other RT2x modules but following the same steps as I would 9.10 on the new release of Ubuntu won't allow me to connect via wifi at all. I went back to 9.10 for now but was hoping this would be resolved soon.

I've managed to install my WUSB600N on 10.10 (which was NOT easy!!) and I can see all my local wireless networks, but I can't connect - it attempts to connect then disconnects after what I guess is timing out.I know that you can place these cards in broadcast mode (I think), where you can see networks but not connect. Considering that to get this card working I had to attempt about four different sets of instructions to get this far, could I have placed the card in a broadcast mode? I've been at this for about three days, and unless I go out an buy another network card (I'm currently connected using it through windows) then I'm going to have to give up on Linux, which I really don't want to

I hate kernel upgrades, at least on my laptop. Every time I upgrade, I have to recompile the driver for my Linksys WUSB600N adapter or it doesn't work. Usually, this is no problem, as I have the driver saved in a .tar file and all I have to do is 'make' and 'make install' and it works. BUT... This time, I tried that, and I get this:
Code:
doug@dh-laptop:~/LOCAL/Software/RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2$ make
make -C tools

There was quite a bit of threads about this card, and getting it to work mostly boils down to downloading Ralink's propitiatory driver. The card uses RT2870 chipset, and Ubuntu comes with two drivers that are supposed to support it, neither of which seems to work with WUSB600N. One of the drivers included with Ubuntu detects networks operating on 2.4GHz but fails to connect to them, but does not detect 5GHz networks at all.
I was wondering if anybody knows what is so special with this card that it doesn't work with drivers that are shipped with Ubuntu? The card works nicely with Ralink's driver, but it's a bit annoying to have to recompile it on every kernel update (would be much nicer if it worked with stock drivers).

I managed to find an older version of the rt3572 driver to compile to get this dongle to work fine, and it did. After that I added "module rt3572sta" (or whatever it is, not on Ubuntu to check now) to the end of /etc/modules. However, when I boot up Ubuntu, most of the time the driver won't load. If I run 'modprobe rt3572sta' from the terminal, I get this message -

well I am a novice in Linux OS, I have a wireless card, it's a Linksys WUSB600N but it doesn't work in Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop Edition, which it is the one I have, 64 bits machine, so I read this [URL] and I did all the steps, I downloaded 2010_0915_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2.tar but in the last part, sudo make install I got this error
alain@alain:~/t/2010_0915_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2$ sudo make install
make -C /home/alain/t/2010_0915_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2/os/linux -f Makefile.6 install
mkdir: cannot create directory `/etc/Wireless': File exists
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/alain/t/2010_0915_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.4.0.2/os/linux'
rm -rf /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA
mkdir /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA
[Code],,,,
so i have no way to get connected to the internet, what is that error cannot stat `rt3572sta.ko': No such file or directory, I think thats why i can make the wireless card work.

Code: tar -xvf 2009_1222_RT3572_LinuxSTA_V2.3.0.0.tar
no problems here I have modified the 2 files as instructed:
Quote:
4) add the device and vendor id "{USB_DEVICE(0x1737,0x0079)}" between the "#ifdef RT35xx" and "#endif // RT35xx //" in the file "common/rtusb_dev_id.c"
5) modify the "os/linux/config.mk" like I described in my previous message
no problems here: next step according to all instructions: sudo make and sudo make install, trips me up, i get "no targets specified and no makefile found" probably a basic mistake somewhere here, but my knowledge of the command line is zilch

I'm trying to connect to a friend's Linksys WAG160N router using Ubuntu 10.10, but it's just refusing to connect. I can connect to other wireless networks fine - it seems to just be this router. The wireless indicator applet thing shows that I'm trying to connect, but the password box always just pops up again and again. I'm certain I've got the password correct and am able to connect under OSX on the same computer. Connecting to it via ethernet also works fine.

My first Ubuntu/Mythbuntu install. Installed OS, plugged in linksys wireless G adapter. It finds the network but cannot connect. Discovered wireless priviledges while setting up admin/user accounts. Should be ready to go. or not, I'm thinking it needs a driver but
1) in linux? certainly not in Fedora.
2) If it can see the network it doesn't need a driver,
My settings are wrong or I'm missing something. SSID is set in settings. Do I need mac address and BSSID?
