http://www.realtek.com/downloads shows the following driver is this the right one (???):
RTL8188CE
linux_mac80211_0010.0109.2013.tar.bz2

I've been downloading & trying different driver Tarballs all day without success. I did get linux_mac80211_0010.0109.2013.tar.bz2
to install on Fedora-17 with kernel-3.6.1 but modprobe wouldn't load it. If I remember correctly there were lots of "waring"
messaages during the "Make" but drivers were installed in the /lib/modules/3.6.1-efi/kernel/drivers/net/wireless directory.

Under kernel-3.7.1 the "make"command failed with Error:linux_mac80211_0010.0109.2013/base.c:1441:16: ‘struct <anonymous>’

Thank you for reading this post. I hope someone can help.

This is a start point when asking questions about wireless drivers http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...y-list-456983/

Also when posting output from console commands please put it inside the CODE tags to increase readability. See BBcodes.

I'm no wireless savoy but to me looks like it is installed just need to set the access point password etc.
But I may be wrong.

By the way isn't better to use the Fedora way to install drivers, with yum or their tools ?

Regards

Yes, it did install but it wouldn't load on reboot & modprobe wouldn't load it from the konsole. I didn't see a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan file either. I believe there were lots of warning messages during the make process too.

I just downloaded a fresh copy of the linux_mac80211_0010.0109.2013.tar.bz2 driver, so I'll give it another try & report back with the "make" command warring messages.

The RTL8188CE should be supported out of the box by any recent distro, so you shouldn't need to install a driver at all.
What exactly are your problems with that device?

you need 8192ce, not 8192se, AFAIK. It should be included in more recent kernels (>=3.2 or so). At least it worked out-of-the-box on ubuntu 3.0 kernel (though not too well).

Sorry I didn't respond back sooner but I can report now that I have a working driver for my
ENCORE ENEWI-1XN45 Wireless N150 Adapter. It was in the Kernel-3.7.1 source. I didn't have
to use the proprietary linux_mac80211_0010.0109.2013.tar.bz2 after all but I think that is the
correct Reaktek package. I also think it would compile on by system now that I selected the
following Kernel options:

<*> Improved wireless config API
<*> Generic Ieee 802.11 Networking stack (Mac 80211)

Here is where the ENCORE ENEWI-1XN45 Wireless N150 Adapter (Chip:RTL8188CE) Kernel-3.7.1 source driver options are located:

Sorry to say I don't use the Fedora-17 distribution kernels. I like to build my kernels from source.
That explains why this card didn't work "Out_Of The_Box" for me.

Thank you all for reading this post.
