Hi there. New to the forums, Puppy has been running nicely on my backup pc (currently my main pc since october 2007!!) for a while now. Wanted some lovely wireless so I got a ralink pcmcia card since it's open sourced.
Ok Everything works fine except it will not do anything faster than 130-140k total. Single or multiple internet downloads at which point websurf pretty much reaches a standstill and transfering to or from samba shares etc..
I tried booting with the devx sfs to compile cvs from serialmonkey but it wont compile. Heres my ifconfig output. wlan0 has been up for a few minutes at this point downloading from my isp's ftp for most of that.

Im guessing them thar collisions and errors lookin a touch high
Using WPA TKIP, default settings used in the wizard. Same issue occurs in Puppy 3.01,3.99,4.00 they all appear to use the same version. 4.1alpha1&2 wont connect at all.
Thanks for any help in advance, I have been trying to fix this myself and search for solutions for a few weeks now. Cheers
Ralink RT61 PCMCIA wifi transfer speed capped at 130k?

I suggest you keep trying the new rt61pci driver in Puppy4.1alpha2.
Use manual configuration commands as explained in the wifi HOWTO here -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=22469
First try a connection with NO encryption.
Then re-enable encryption and try again. If it fails, refer to "PART 4: Troubleshooting, encryption problems" of the wifi HOWTO.

Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately I have tried them accross puppy 4.00,4.00 with new kernel and alpha2 still no joy.
In the alpha the commands do not work. A clue i believe is that wlan0 is shown in iwconfig but not ifconfig. Using the wizard it doesnt even recognise that any ap's exist, so no joy.
I also did everything in 4.00 but same deal as before. For a moment I will get full speed (confirmed by counting how much has been downloaded everysecond) but then it will plummet to 130-140k (and stay that way) and the collisions and errors will increase rapidly. An odd thing I noticed is that when connected without encryption the status lights on the card work when using wpa they are blank/off. Heres is the output from ifconfig in 4.00 using iwconfig to setup without encryption. Thanks again for your help.

The Wifi HOWTO I referred to explains a complete series of wifi configuration commands. In your case this command sequence may, indeed, fail at a certain point, but your claim that "In the alpha the commands do not work" is quite misleading to other forum members. The iwconfig commands explained in the Wifi HOWTO most certainly do work, as confirmed in the last few days by forum member fleamour -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=29313
In fleamour's case, WEP encryption failed, and we are still trying to work out why. When we do find the problem, the Network Wizard will be updated to include the fix.
If you want us to help troubleshoot the exact point of failure you should properly elaborate the commands you used.

Apologies for my lack of clarity. Okay I am using an IBM Thinkpad X22 with an Edimax EW-7108PCg (RT2561). Here are my 3 attempts in full detail so you can see where wlan0 is and isn't recognised/exists. Attempted in Puppy 4.1 alpha2. 1.Using No encryption 2. Following PART 3: WPA encryption with Ralink devices 3. Following PART 2: WPA encryption method.

2.Following PART 3: WPA encryption with Ralink devices
# modprobe rt61pci
# ifconfig wlan0 up

# iwpriv wlan0 set NetworkType=Infra
wlan0 no private ioctls.

iwpriv commands are returning errors so i stop there.

Good reporting.
After loading the rt61pci module, check dmesg to see if there are any clues about how the module loaded.
That's a major problem. It appears that the rt61pci module has loaded and created an interface (wlan0) but this interface is problematic.pertek wrote:# ifconfig wlan0 up

OK, there's a troubleshooting process you need to follow.pertek wrote:phy0 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware.
1. Check if the firmware exists in /lib/firmware (ignore /lib/all-firmware)
There should be 3 firmware files there -
rt2561.bin
rt2561s.bin
rt2661.bin
I see a slight error in the firmware installation script - /lib/modules/firmware.dep.2.6.25.4 -
Code: Select all
rt2x00:rt2x00pci.ko,rt2x00usb.ko,rt61pc.ko,rt73usb.ko,rt2400pci.ko,rt2500pci.ko,rt2500usb.koIf the firmware does not exist, install the dotpet I now attach.
2. Firmware loading in Puppy4.1alpha2is broken during bootup. So if your rt61pci module has loaded automatically at bootup, make sure you unload it, then reload it, like this -
Code: Select all
rmmod rt61pci
modprobe rt61pci- Attachments
-
- rt61pci-firmware.pet
- (7.85 KiB) Downloaded 409 times
The firmware files were not there so I installed the .pet and that worked.I noticed that alpha2 iso dos not contain a zrdv_***.sfs (and therefore my install as I install puppy manualy) like previous releases. I assume its supposed to be that way. I downloaded it again from the ibiblio ftp to be sure.
Success, partly... With NO encyption we're laughing (termial setup and wizard) but not with WPA through command line or wizard,
'No keys have been configured - skip key clearing' occurs often in the output using wpa_supplicant with wext or ralink. I have indeed setup and double checked the wpa conf file.
"I see a slight error in the firmware installation script - /lib/modules/firmware.dep.2.6.25.4 -
Code:
rt2x00:rt2x00pci.ko,rt2x00usb.ko,rt61pc.ko,rt73usb.ko,rt2400pci.ko,rt2500pci.ko,rt2500usb.ko"
I cant find any of that info in my post or find that file, I take it your looking at the source?
Ralink way
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwpriv wlan0 set NetworkType=Infra
wlan0 no private ioctls.
wpa_supplicant way
Using wext
# modprobe rt61pci
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# rm /var/run/wpa_supplicant/*
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/wpa_supplicant/*': No such file or directory
# rm /var/run/wpa_supplicant/*

Success, partly... With NO encyption we're laughing (termial setup and wizard) but not with WPA through command line or wizard,
'No keys have been configured - skip key clearing' occurs often in the output using wpa_supplicant with wext or ralink. I have indeed setup and double checked the wpa conf file.
"I see a slight error in the firmware installation script - /lib/modules/firmware.dep.2.6.25.4 -
Code:
rt2x00:rt2x00pci.ko,rt2x00usb.ko,rt61pc.ko,rt73usb.ko,rt2400pci.ko,rt2500pci.ko,rt2500usb.ko"
I cant find any of that info in my post or find that file, I take it your looking at the source?
Ralink way
# ifconfig wlan0 up
# iwpriv wlan0 set NetworkType=Infra
wlan0 no private ioctls.
wpa_supplicant way

Well it's good that you got the rt61pci module working properly, but unfortunately encryption appears to be broken in the Puppy4.1 alphas.
Your wpa_supplicant command is exactly correct, but going back through your earlier posts I don't see reference to the aes_generic module, which is necessary for WPA encryption.
So if you can be bothered testing again, check your /etc/wpa_supplicant2.conf file, then here is the complete command sequence for WPA -
Then open a second console, and do this -
Don't bother trying the "ralink" -D parameter, because only the old rt61 module is compatible with this.
Similarly, don't bother trying the Ralink "iwpriv" method of WPA configuration.
It might also be worth testing WEP encryption, if your router can easily be configured for WEP. Here is the complete command sequence (replace "MY_ESSID" with your SSID, and "1234567890" with your WEP key) -

I'll give it another try in the next test release and post back here.
To clarify are you a puppy developer or an incredibly active forum member/contributer. I had the impression it was just one guy, Barry. I ask because I wondered whether the information from this thread goes to the right people or if it should be posted elsewhere.
Thank you very much for your help. Roll on 4.1 beta.

I see you are using the /etc/wpa_supplicant2.conf configuration file, so I assumed your wifi router is set for WPA2, and my understanding is that WPA2 is always AES, never TKIP.pertek wrote:I had loaded the aes module on other attempts, though I had assumed it wasn't necessary as I was using TKIP.

There is a very active community of developers here who "feed" Barry with information and suggestions. Those ideas which don't their way into a final release often end up as Puppy derivatives. One example which springs to mind is a Puppy version (wNOP) with XFCE window manager and Compiz-Fusion 3D desktop.

I see that forum member JustGreg had success with WPA2 and the rt73usb module -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 988#206988
From his results it appears that WPA(2) encryption possibly requires these 3 modules -
arc4
ecb
crypto_blkcipher
in addition to aes_generic and crc32c.
Worth a try.

....nope. Using the correct conf. Search the thread I never even mentioned the wpa2 conf. Anywho. I tried out the new pet with and without the firmware pet. Without it I received the same errors as before. Using both (installing firmware pet first) I recieved a fresh batch from dmesg. Also the rt61pci wouldnt load. Heres the output:

Sorry, regarding wpa_supplicant.conf2 I was confusing you with forum member ohyes.
EDIT: ohyes has now achieved success, but we have discovered that the upgraded wifi modules fail to load the other modules they depend on.
The solution is to unload/reload all modules in the correct sequence.
Assuming your Puppy4.1alpha2 installation still has rt61pci-firmware.pet and the new wifi-2008-06-15-k2.6.25.4.pet, your process should be -
Then do "ifconfig wlan0 up" and continue with configuration.
