phy0 -> rt2500usb_set_device_state: Error - Device failed to enter state 3 (-16). -> Linksys WUSB54G v4 802.11g Adapter [Ralink RT2500USB] 13b1:000d not working on Dell Dimension 4700 in Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

Can you give the output of:

sudo lshw -C network; lsb_release -a; uname -a; sudo rfkill list; dmesg | grep -i firm

and

sudo iwlist scan

Also do you dual boot the system?

Thanks

looks familiar ;)

Hi,

Please first connect your wired network adapter to the wireless router using an ethernet cable (also known as a LAN cable).

In order to gather essential troubleshooting information about your wireless card, please follow this procedure:

Step 1:

If you are using the Gnome interface, open the Terminal console via "Applications->Accessories->Terminal"

If you are using the Unity interface, the easiest way to open the Terminal is to use the 'search' function on the dash. Or you can click on the 'More Apps' button, click on the 'See more results' by the installed section, and find it in that list of applications. A third way, available after you click on the 'More Apps' button, is to go to the search bar, and see that the far right end of it says 'All Applications'. You then click on that, and you'll see the full list. Then you can go to Accessories > Terminal after that.

So the methods in Unity are:
Dash > Search for Terminal
Dash > More Apps > 'See More Results' > Terminal
Dash > More Apps > Accessories > Terminal

Step 2: Please copy-paste the following command from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WirelessTroubleshootingProcedure in Firefox into the Linux Terminal. Do NOT copy-paste from the Email message into the Terminal, as that will only copy PART of the command. The command STARTS with the word sudo and ENDS with the word lsmod. So please copy-paste the ENTIRE command below from Firefox into a Terminal, press <enter>, then enter password when sudo asks for password, then press enter again.

Tip: If you have a wheel mouse or 3 button mouse you do not need to type commands into the Terminal. Highlight the command written on the page. Move your cursor anywhere in the Terminal and press the wheel or middle button. Automatic Copy and paste! No spelling mistakes! No Typos! No other errors!

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install hwinfo grep rfkill; sudo lshw -C network; rfkill list; sudo iwlist scanning; cat /etc/network/interfaces; cat /etc/lsb-release; lspci -nn; lsusb; sudo lshw -short; uname -a; dmesg | egrep 'acx|at76|ath|b43|bcm|brcm|CX|eth|ipw|ireless|irmware|isl|lbtf|orinoco|ndiswrapper|NPE|ound|p54|prism|rtl|rt2|rt3|rt5|rt6|rt7|usb|witch|wl';sudo dmidecode|egrep 'anufact|roduct|erial|elease'; iwconfig; cat /etc/modprobe.d/* | egrep 'acx|at76|ath|b43|bcm|brcm|CX|eth|ipw|irmware|isl|lbtf|orinoco|ndiswrapper|NPE|p54|prism|rtl|rt2|rt3|rt6|rt7|wmi|witch|wl'; cat /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state; sudo hwinfo --netcard ; ps -aux|egrep 'wpa|icd|etwork'; sudo lsmod

Step 3: Please post results (copy/paste terminal output) on this thread. The troubleshooters here need to see the full Terminal output from running the above command.

Regards,

Mark

Thanks for your time.

OK you can see wireless networks so it looks like your hardware is OK

Do you know which of the 3 Cells you can see is yours? The ESSID is the name of your router.

          Cell 01 - Address: 00:90:D0:FC:32:11
                  Channel:11
                  ESSID:"CASARIBAL"
          Cell 02 - Address: 04:C0:6F:2F:67:F4
                  Channel:6
                  ESSID:"INFINITUMff37"
          Cell 03 - Address: 54:A5:1B:D4:BD:38
                  Channel:11
                  ESSID:"CASARIBAL"

Open up a terminal again and send us the output of

ifconfig; route; ping -c5 8.8.8.8

Cell 01 is my main modem/router an Cell 03 is a wifi repeater.

OK you do have internet access so its probably just the name server that is not working

to test this try opening a web browser and in the address bar enter the following IP address

212.58.246.90

This should take you to the bbc web site. If it does not let me know what happens

If it does try the following

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null

Ok, so the bbc website loaded just fine, at least the main page. But then I started browsing on the different articles of the site and the pages just stop loading. If I keep refreshing the page it will eventually load, but id does take quite a while.

I did the command and nothing happened.

I may also add that I currently have 2 laptops connected on the same wireless network. One is using ubuntu 10.04 and the other win7 and they both work well. So that might discard being a wifi router/repeater malfunction.

Try rebooting then give me the output of

cat /etc/resolv.conf

Output of cat /etc/resolv.conf

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search lan

Update... After the reboot the wireless is not connecting to the router anymore

This does not make sense try:

sudo iwlist sacn; ifconfig

CORRECTION: Sorry I mis-typed

This does not make sense try:

sudo iwlist scan; ifconfig

If you run:

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null

Do you then get web acces?

Warren,

output of sudo iwlist scan; ifconfig

I did another reboot and it instantly connected to the router. Dunno what happened. I'm right where I was at the beginning

actionparsnip,

already tried that. I do get web access, but connection suddenly stops and stalls. My network status also shows as connected.

This may not be relevant but looking at your routers

          Cell 01 - Address: 00:90:D0:FC:32:11
                  Channel:11
                  ESSID:"CASARIBAL"
          Cell 02 - Address: 04:C0:6F:2F:67:F4
                  Channel:6
                  ESSID:"INFINITUMff37"
          Cell 03 - Address: 54:A5:1B:D4:BD:38
                  Channel:11
                  ESSID:"CASARIBAL"

Cell 1 and Cell 3 could be fighting each other try turning one of them off see if it makes any difference. If it does you could change one of them to channel 1. There will be a web page on the router to do that.

try:

echo "blacklist rt2500pci" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Reboot to test

Warren,

Actually I unplugged Cell 03 a while ago just to make sure it wasn't creating some kind of interference, but it did not make any difference. I also changed ESSID channel to 1, but also get the same result.

actionparsnip,

I just did as you instructed and the problem persists. Any other idea?

Please try the workaround solution (post #2) in the following thread :

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=136645

Thanks Mark,

apparently this command,

iwconfig wlan0 power off

fixes the problem. I have been browsing with no problems at all. Now, is there a way I don't have to input the command at the terminal every time I reboot?

Again, thank you.

Its certainly possible to set up a script to run at start-up.

I can't remember all the deatils, pergaps someone else can. If noboby else has answered by the time I get home tonight. I'll check it out and let you know how to do it.

try

cat /etc/init.d/rc.local

echo "iwconfig wlan0 power off" | sudo tee -a /etc/init.d/rc.local

Paste the results back here in case we need to change it doesn't work and we have to change the file back to how it was but I think this will fix it for you

Don't do both of these Try Andrew's suggestion first

Thanks actionparsnip, that solved my question.

Thank you all for your time and your advice. Problem solved :)
