Lynksys WUSB54GC.

I can connect to non protected WiFi networks with no problems. But cannot connect to WPA/WPA2-Personal(PSK)

I find it seems to work when I'm booting a partition everyday (as I do for my main 10.10 partition) but for my 11.04 testing partition it's a real pain - usually refusing to connect.

Do you still have this problem in Ubuntu 12.04?

No.

(Although it's possible I still would if I had my old router.)
