In my case, I cannot connect to a Meraki mesh network, but have no trouble when using my Android phone as a WiFi Access Point. The launchpad bugs are: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/852190 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/869530 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-backports-modules-3.0.0/+bug/862684 ~$ uname -a Linux crow 2.6.38-11-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 12 21:18:14 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux ~$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
