Description:

I have an Edimax EW-7728In Wi-Fi card, it is based on the Ralink RT2860 chip and therefore the kernel driver, which is supposed to manage it, is rt2800pci. After I seemingly successfully connect to my Wi-Fi network, I can't even ping my router.


Additional info:

linux 3.6.6-1-ARCH

For debugging purposes, I have connected to my network like this:
`wpa_supplicant -Dwext -i wlan0 -c wpa_supplicant.conf -dd` (output and wpa_supplicant.conf attached)
`dhcpcd wlan0 -d` (output attached)

I have also attached the output of `iwlist wlan0 scan` (before I connected to my network), relevant contents from dmesg, output of `ifconfig wlan0` and `iwconfig wlan0` after I connected to my network.

Just a little history of the working/not working state of this card during various kernel versions - until (if I remember correctly) 2.6.38 there was the rt2800pci driver that didn't work at all, and a staging driver (rt2860sta). The staging driver worked (I had to blacklist rt2800pci), but it didn't support 802.11n - so I ended up using the driver from the AUR[1] (which supported 802.11n, but I had to reinstall it every kernel release). On linux 2.6.39 the rt2800pci driver started to work and although it didn't seem to support 802.11n, it was a better solution that constantly reinstalling the driver from the AUR. On linux 3.0 the rt2800pci matured enough for the staging driver to be removed from the kernel, but for me the rt2800pci driver stopped working again - so I resumed using the driver from the AUR. On linux 3.4 I started getting kernel panics using the AUR driver so I switched to linux-lts (which is still 3.0.x) for the AUR driver to work. So now I'm using linux-lts and would really like to get this issue sorted out (but I tested the rt2800pci driver on linux 3.6.6).

Steps to reproduce:

Try connecting to the internet with an Edimax EW-7728In Wi-Fi card and the default kernel driver.
