Hello I successfully builded upt the driver but when I check the network list it says not networks . I'm using Arch linux as well the Netgear WNDA3100v3 stick. I have tried restarting the network manager but still not networks. Someone help me with this?

Can you try to place your router REALLY close to the computer, just to test if it is receiving or not? In my case I can receive with a AUKEY WF-R13 some networks but really really weak, maybe the gain of the receiving chain is wrongly set in the drivers.

I am having the same issue. When I was still setting Arch up and tried to use wifi-menu, it would immediately fail to connect. In Gnome, I have the same issue where it can't find network. If I try to run sudo ip link set wlan0 up I get an error saying RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted. I'm having this issue both on the normal Arch kernel and on the Linux-ck kernel (Currently running ck 4.10.4). Anyone have an ideas for how to solve this?

Edit: This seems to be a relevant part of dmesg, happens whenever I try to set wlan0 to up [ 6079.362219] -->RTUSBVendorReset [ 6079.382154] <--RTUSBVendorReset [ 6081.478329] andes_usb_load_rom_patch: upload fw timeout [ 6081.478332] ERROR mt766u_sta: [ 6081.478334] load patch failed, Status[=0x00000001] [ 6081.551936] receive cmd msg fail(-2) [ 6081.551964] tx_kickout_fail_count = 0 [ 6081.551964] tx_timeout_fail_count = 0 [ 6081.551965] rx_receive_fail_count = 0 [ 6081.551965] alloc_cmd_msg = 1 [ 6081.551966] free_cmd_msg = 1 [ 6081.551966] !!! rt28xx init fail !!!

Edit2: ~If I change UPLOAD_FW_TIMEOUT_MS in include/mcu/mcu_and.h to 20000, it doesn't time out any more but it seems to get stuck at mcu/mcu_and.c around line 390 ret = RTUSB_SUBMIT_URB(urb); on the first iteration through the while loop.~

Edit3: ~I think edit2 is actually wrong. It makes it through 2 iterations of the previously mentioned while loop. It seems to stop before line 397~

Edit 4: You know what, you can probably just ignore all my edits. All I've been able to find is that it times out in mcu_and.c after two total iterations of the while loop that contains line 390, even if I set the timeout higher (I've tried 20000ms). Still don't know why.

Update: I am now on Linux-ck 4.10.5, and it gets farther (ip link set wlan0 up actually works now), but still doesn't find any networks. Here is the dmesg: http://pastebin.com/QGWn4zR0
