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

 

Step 1) I upgraded to 14.04.1 from 13.10 using apt-get upgrade, update-
manager -d.


No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release:	14.04
Codename:	trusty



Step 2) Pulled driver code from GIT and built. Loaded via modprobe and added to /etc/modules too.


Step 3) After reboot, everything seems to be fine except intermediate stuck (network connectivity drop) and becomes available itself. 



Linux 440s-laptop 3.13.9 #2 SMP Tue May 20 09:57:03 CDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


15:13:58 up 22 min,  3 users,  load average: 1.33, 1.49, 1.22


also, RTT delay is quite a high for pinging directly connected router IP.

Is it due to arp getting timed out ?. I see ARP timeouts. 


How do I debug futher. Any help is appreciated.
