It is evident that Canonical's priorities do not include wifi. You can go to Ubuntuforums and see a constant flow of problems related to wifi. The same problems over and over, year after year. I could somewhat understand this if we were dealing with companies that do not cooperate with the open source community. However, Ralink, Realtek, Atheros, Broadcom (recently) do cooperate. Good quality drivers are available to be included in Ubuntu and the kernel. What we have in Ubuntu is either old drivers or no drivers and/or bad configurations.

Why is it that this chipset works plug and play with Linux Mint Debian but is a cluster *uck with Ubuntu?
