You can see my NIC type is RTL8188CE

Four, according to their own network card model and system kernel version download wireless network card driver

Download address: Http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx? langid=1&pfid=48&level=5&conn=4&prodid=228&downtypeid=3&getdown=false&downloads= True

Note here: My kernel is 2.6.32, but my Linux driver for kernel 2.6.24 (and later), 2.6.24 This version did not install successfully. Later this Linux driver for kernel 2.6.23 (a nd earlier) version can actually install successfully.

V. Download the TAR package for compilation and installation

Since is the TAR source code package to compile the installation, then must have the compilation tool, otherwise will be the error.
