All seems to be working off and on - meaning I can get it to work then if it going idle I get a wlan0 timeout message. How can I keep this from happening ?
Funny, I just recently installed an ASUS USB-N13 adapter with the same rtl8192 chipset. I also have twice now since yesterday morning, had it loose its brains. Access point not associated. I had also been having what I found to be poor signal quality problems in my house that I thought were corrected until this started. I was starting to think maybe I hadn't resolved that well enough. Now I see someone else with the same sort of problem. Whew! Sorry, but I went through hell figuring out that first signal quality problem. So maybe I'm seeing the same thing as you. If I figure it out, I'll repost. This is on an 11.4 box running a 3.2.18 kernel.,

Mark,
You might try what I finally found on the internet.
It said to disable the "dhcpcd" and just run "dhcp-client". So far in my "small short" test - that worked. Although, you will have to tell it to "break" some dependencies - which so far is harmless.
Regards, Duaine
Didn't help me. I decided to put mine in another box running 12.2 and now it's even worse. Within a minute or so it stops communicating. iwconfig still shows a valid access point and signal strength 70/70. No errors show up in ifconfig or iwconfig. It's like it just goes out to lunch and won't start working again until I reboot. Even restarting the network does not bring it back to life.
On this other machine, I'm using 12.2 and a 3.6.2 kernel using its built in rtl8192 driver. Did you say you were running the driver from the Real-Tek site?
Mark I believe I compiled it as a last resort. However, I think I was running the kernel driver.
