Hi,
On Linux Lite 3.0 beta, I can't get connected to the internet with my wifi adapter.
My adapter is a Realtek RTL8191SU.
Is there a solution for this adapter?
Try checking - Menu / Install Drivers then under the Additional Tab see if there are any drivers listed for your device..
Also check that your radio is not turned off/blocked..
Running the below in the terminal (ctrl+alt+t) will diplay WiFi and Bluetooth and if they are off (blocked)..
If no drivers or radios are on.. may want to give the output of the following command.
There are no drivers installed.
Output of inxi -Fxz is:

Hi,
I had some notes from when I did an install for a friend.
Now that was 2.8 with kernel 3.16, and he had a DLink(I think) WiFi device with the RTL8191SU.
Now the the kernel is 3.19 on LL 3.0
I found these instructions, and they worked on that device.
But first, create backup with systemback(firenice03
)
Then open terminal,
ctrl+alt+t then enter each line, 1 by 1
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
cd rtlwifi_new
make
sudo make install
Then re-boot
Hi,
My problem is solved.
I installed ndiswrapper. Then I installed the windows driver from Realtek. That did not work.
Then I downloaded the windows driver from the manufactory site, and installed that driver.
And that driver worked.
Thanks for your support.
Glad you sorted it... maybe you can marked solved, it can help people with similar issues
I was looking for the button solved, but couldn't find it thats wy the thumb up.
Sorry, I find it.
