Please post some additional details, what did you try, how did you try, what's happened.... Is there any log somewhere?

The kernel provides rtl8192cu and rtl8xxxu, Both are loaded by the kernel by default which I suppose creates a conflict, thus I tried blacklisting one of them at a time (by appending "blacklist rtl8192cu" or "blacklist rtlxxxu" to a custom file at /etc/modprobe.d, the blacklist itself works, the corresponding driver doesn't show up on lsmod) , the card is always able to find networks but can't connect even when given the correct password.
