[DSA 3060-1] broke my Wifi



My USB Wifi adapter stopped working since I updated my Kernel to the
latest security update.



Adapter brand name: Edimax 7811un
Driver as shown by lshw:  rtl8192cu driverversion=3.2.0-4-amd64
Chipset: RTL8188CUS according to:
http://www.cianmcgovern.com/getting-the-edimax-ew-7811un-working-on-linux/

p.s. the link above also has some extra info regarding this specific device.


The device is detected, but it never finds any networks. Also, the
device's LED is acting weird: It is either on forever, or off forever.
when I disconnect and reconnect the device it MIGHT toggle between the
forever-on and forever-off state. In the past, the LED used to blink in
sync with network activity.


Two questions:
-What's going on?
-How do I undo an update?
