Realtek 8821CE Wireless Lan 80211ac PCI-E NIC not found
Posted: Sun 15 Dec 2019, 09:31
I bought a new laptop because Santa Claws is now owned by Amazon ...
... also I was probably on the naughty list
I installed several recent 64bit and even 32bit Puppys without problem and booted from a USB stick - in future I might change to an SD card ...
They all seemed to install and run OK but not as well for video and hdmi sound as the built in Windows 10S.
Wot? Something wrong there ... but that is another question/thread
I have secured Windows, hardly used it since Windows XP - it is very different and invasive - a bit like 'paper clip' on steriods
... anyway back to Puppy .... There is only an internal wifi connection:
Realtek 8821CE Wireless Lan 80211ac PCI-E Nic
loaded in many modules with the Network Setup Wizard in Puppy - nope
none of the Puppy's support it directly ...
It is possible to load in a windows .inf but that is a last resort as ideally once running I will not want or need the MS operating infestation. Anyway I can not find the .INF file despite extensive searching
Any help advice welcome. Thanks in advance.
