Your comment is confusing. You write about firmware rtl8192cfw.bin, and then say your hardware is RTL8188EE. If that is really your hardware, then your firmware file is rtl8188efe.bin, not rtl8192cfw.bin. Which is correct?
The firmware files that work for me have the following md5sums and sizes: finger@larrylap:~/linux-firmware> md5sum rtlwifi/* 3aed09e6385aff0f3809a3949f6c3b64 rtlwifi/rtl8188efw.bin aaef52a47852e599cbff63a3e7f96a94 rtlwifi/rtl8188eufw.bin 748944fbffd3b08b5b1929bb6c7fc537 rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin dd371739aa401ea1d615436b24598bc4 rtlwifi/rtl8192cfwU_B.bin 660d5d7e1e1fd985261fb20b2ac283f6 rtlwifi/rtl8192cfwU.bin 7e15572f80406839896ff4a1042b2b2f rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw_A.bin d0cdaf2531dcf416058ebb00f3f527bb rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw_B.bin 943e9b714a926e630b8152d7aad91d2e rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw.bin b64bd0e053c8b9e45efeae7ffaafde9f rtlwifi/rtl8192cufw_TMSC.bin de0e4180e87cf18a8a4b62d145bde829 rtlwifi/rtl8192defw.bin 2faf6915a0bbb5d15d3bd43618f5347c rtlwifi/rtl8192sefw.bin 200fd952db3cc9259b1fd05e3e51966f rtlwifi/rtl8712u.bin ce50dfe07dbb1bfe9e14bdb315a4b28a rtlwifi/rtl8723fw_B.bin 69ccaffbe94cc0ef1b89c25290e19b2e rtlwifi/rtl8723fw.bin finger@larrylap:~/linux-firmware> ls -l rtlwifi/ total 400 -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 11216 Feb 20 2013 rtl8188efw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 13904 Sep 27 22:17 rtl8188eufw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 13540 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192cfw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 14800 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192cfwU_B.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 14818 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192cfwU.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 16116 Sep 26 17:14 rtl8192cufw_A.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 16096 Sep 26 17:14 rtl8192cufw_B.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 16014 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192cufw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 16116 Sep 26 17:14 rtl8192cufw_TMSC.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 22978 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192defw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 80208 Feb 14 2013 rtl8192sefw.bin -rw-r--r-- 1 finger users 122328 Feb 14 2013 rtl8712u.bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 finger users 22996 Feb 14 2013 rtl8723fw_B.bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 finger users 11662 Feb 14 2013 rtl8723fw.bin finger@larrylap:~/linux-firmware> -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/902557 Title: 10ec:8176 Wireless not working in 12.04 for rtl8192ce (RTL8188CE) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/902557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
