Install the RTL8188CE NIC Driver (Mercury MW150U) in linux)
First, describe my system:
Ubuntu 11.10
Kernel: 3.0.0-32-generic
I bought a wireless network card Mercury 150 Mbit/s MW150U series today. I found that I can use it without installing a driver in my laptop Ubuntu12.10 (the light is on)
Ubuntu 11.10 on a desktop cannot be used.
You can only go to mercury's official website and find that the bug is that this official website does not provide a linux driver, so you can only download it from its chip official website. Its chipset is:
Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n
On the official website www.realtek.com, find the NIC driver of this series: RTL8188CE.
Download and decompress the package. decompress the package and go to the corresponding folder. read readme. you can install the package using the following three commands:
Sudo make
Sudo make install
Sudo reboot // restart

Download another 8188 or 8192 series driver. download the following file: RTL8192xC_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105.zip.
The installation is successful.
Go to this folder, which contains install. sh and install it using the following command:
Chmod u + x install. sh
Sudo./install. sh
Restart After installation. Successful: for example:
