You have to create a file:

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf

and add this line:

# Disable power saving
options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=0

save and reboot.

you can check the status if it is off:

cat /sys/module/8192cu/parameters/rtw_power_mgnt

it should be 0 now.

Hello, I believe I am having the same problem. Is there any way I could do this using ssh via terminal? thanks!
