[gentoo-user] Having Trouble with Wireless Interface

[Hunter Jozwiak]

Hi all. I got Espeakup to finally function, but I have a problem now
with my Realtech 8188 WiFi adapter, Rev01, according to ifconfig. I
know it shows up as wlp7s0 on an ifconfig, normally. But for what ever
reason, it isn't showing up. I have, in my /etc/conf.d/net the line:
wlp7s0="DHCP". When I run ifconfig wlp7s0 up, I get an error about how
the device is not able to be found. The driver shows up as a module in
the kernel.
