First of all : many thanks for all you done with Linux !!! And probably more, many thanks to take time for answered me too. In fact, you were completely right : it's a distro issue. I choose a last 3.6.7 stable kernel and it _works_ properly. I think I forgot "ifconfig wlan0 up" and unstable debian distro is out. Sorry for my disturb of your work. Need to install one other similar wifi card : netgear WMA3100M and hope to get rid of ndiswrapper. Best regards. S.

That problem is not likely due to rtl8192cu, but is related to some other issue. What does 'rfkill list' show? What distro do you use?
