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

 

Hi Siu On Chan,

Thanks for the information. With the linux-headers-3.13.9-generic for my
amd64 architecture I downloaded necessary headers package and I am able
to build (make and sudo make install) in my computer. Now I can see my
Wifi networks, but it still not able to connect to WIFI network.

It tries to connect for long time, but fails finally. dmesg tail
displays the following error:

[  504.653769] rtl8192ee:rtl92ee_get_hw_reg():<0-0> switch case not process 5c

So it is timing out while authenticating! Any idea where it is failing!?
