Hi Larry/Michael/everyone,
I just bought a Lenovo T540p with the same Realtek 8192EE wifi adapter.
I tried both the 2.13.9 patched kernel with the firmware and the newest 2.16rc7 kernel.
Both have the same problem:
My wifi connects OK but it drops intermittently
When I try to ping "www.google.com" in the terminal about 7% pakets gets dropped
Just to make sure it's not the internet I ping the router address
192.168.1.1 and same problem. So it's definitely the wifi connection unstable.
I have a Cisco M10 router. It may be the router so I played around with the router settings a bit and changing it to "wireless N only" mode seems to help lower the timeout rate a bit but still high compare to the windows 7 results (around 1%)

Where can I find the debug logs and give you more information?

Also, how do I tweak the paramters? When I execute the modinfo command
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module rtl8192ee

Thanks in advance!

Juan
