[Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]

 

Some symptoms:

My T440s laptop usually refuses to connect right after the first 5-6 cold boots
in the morning.

Sometimes the Network Manager applet says "connected", but once I try to
connect to any site (or just do a ping), the connection breaks immediately.

After a disconnect event, my home network often disappears from the list of
Wi-Fi networks.

To get connected after a failure, I have to reboot my laptop.  Simply removing
the r8192ee module and reloading it does not help.

If I successfully connect, the network sometimes feel slow, and this usually
happens when I try to go to a new website.  Loading another page from the same
website seems normal.
