Description:
I use a D-link DWA-131 wireless stick with the r8712u driver. I have problems when I'm connecting to https sites (both with browsers or cli programs). Even if I try to download something with wget from a https website it fails repeatedly giving the error "SSL3_GET_RECORD: decryption failed or bad record mac". It is definitely a probelm with the r8712u module, as using wired network works fine and also using the lts kernel (3.0 branch) doesn't show any problem. Logs don't show anything wrong with the firmware loading or any other message related to this module.
Let me know if I can provide any additional information.

Reported on linux 3.4.4 (I also tried compiling linux 3.5rc7 from AUR with the same results)
I use networkmanager to connect (if that can help)
This task depends upon
