[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]
I confirm what Ivan is experiencing, I am still not able to make a simple voice call. Hope this will be solved soon. I saw in the repo two different versions of the firmware, should we try to test rtl8192eefw_new.bin ?

I am now trying the latest changes in the troy branch, and experiencing the same behavior as ivanalejandro0. The connection works, but it drops from time to time. Definitely better than previous versions. This is anyway annoying because i cannot have a skype call without interruptions. Regarding the ips option, I think that it is set as zero by default (even if modinfo says the opposite), or at least if I execute: cat /sys/module/rtl8192ee/parameters/ips it returns N, which I suppose to be 0.

I am using kernel 3.19.0 on a T440s with no luck, the systems hangs and the connection speed drops, so at the moment I am using a 10EUR USB wireless card. I think I am close to give up and change the wireless card. buldozer2003, have you solved the problem by using the Intel card? If yes, can you please provide the exact model number so that i can buy the same?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]
Thanks again Larry installing the new driver got better on one sense, but worse on another. Now testing with iperf i do not see any other speed drop, the connection is quite stable. However, i have programmed iperf to go for 500 seconds, but after about 300 the connection died at all and in dmesg i read: [ 779.196064] rtlwifi:rtl_cam_del_entry():<0-0> cam_bitmap: 0x2 [ 779.196440] rtlwifi:rtl_cam_get_free_entry():<0-0> key_index=0,cam_bitmap: 0x12 entry_idx=4 [ 779.201434] rtlwifi:rtl_cam_del_entry():<0-0> cam_bitmap: 0x10 [ 779.201806] rtlwifi:rtl_cam_get_free_entry():<0-0> key_index=1,cam_bitmap: 0x12 entry_idx=1 Then i had either do disconnect and reconnect to the network, or disable/enable the network interface. In modinfo i also see that the new driver is still using the old firmware rtlwifi/rtl8192eefw.bin, while in the code i see it should load rtlwifi/rtl8192eefw_new.bin. Is it just a broken message printed, or is it really not loading the new firmware? I hope my messages help you in getting a stable version of the driver. I am bothering so much because, as most of us, i use my laptop for work and i need to have a stable wireless connection.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]
Thanks a lot Larry i see something strange: there is an r8192ee and an rtl8192ee module in my system, the former comes from the staging drivers in the kernel and it is the only actually being loaded in the system (kernel 3.17). So i am not actually trying you code. How can i prevent the staging drivers from being mounted in the system, and only let the others to be used?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]
Sorry, the first of the two is not an error, since the kernel on my machine has not be compiled with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y loading an untrusted module is just tainting the kernel, and the module is loaded in any case. Given this, the second warning remains and even installing this new driver i see the same behavior of speed drop after some time. As a test i am trying to download a large file from my workstation at my office (University), where for sure there are no bandwidth problems. On which card/kernel have you tried the code???

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]
Hello, I Have tried, as suggested, to boot a 3.19 rc4 but the problem of speed drop is still there. Tested on a Thinkpad T440s + Ubuntu 14.04 + RTL8192ee. I have also tried to compile the troy branch, compilation/installation went well. Then at boot time i get the following: [2.143768] rtlwifi: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel [2.144295] rtlwifi: exports duplicate symbol rtl_evm_dbm_jaguar (owned by r8192ee) Is there a way to sign the module without re-compiling the kernel??
