by adding also the generic driver  "wext"  at the -D parameter of wpa_supplicant

Error :  please read  "Today I succeed to get a good connexion with RTL8191S Key" 



IN fact I succed to get a good connexion  also with the command : 
 (  after confirating the connexion with standard hardrake menu and using the west  driver )

Comment 8 Alex Sem 2020-01-04 13:10:07 CET
@Jean Claude PERRAUD, thanks.

This (-Dr8712u,wext) works with Wifi-USB Asus N10. Speed is about 30 Mbit/s.

IMHO, update of Draknetcenter needs.

Hi bug reporter and hi assignee and others involved,

Please reopen this bug report if it is still valid for Mageia 8 or 9(cauldron), and change "Version:" in the upper left of this report accordingly.

This report is being closed as OLD because it was filed against Mageia 7, for which  support ended on June 30th 2021.

Thanks,
Marja
