My laptop MSi S12 has a RTL8723ae PCI card with Ubuntu 14.04 on board. It doesn't detect wi-fi networks.
I tried the answers from ubuntuforums and Wireless card Realtek RTL8723AE-BT is not recognized but make
fails.
How can I fix this issue?
UPDATE:
1) Fail with "make" drivers is the same like here - Problem building an rtl8723 driver . And, in my case rtl_92ce_92se_92de_8723ae_linux_mac80211_0007.0809.2012.tar.gz gave me the same error (I suppose drivers have trouble with 3.13 kernel).
2) Wireles modules looks OK:
alex@gendalf:~$ lsmod | grep ^rtl
rtl8723ae 76506 0
rtl8723_common 22417 1 rtl8723ae
rtl_pci 26314 1 rtl8723ae
rtlwifi 52835 2 rtl_pci,rtl8723ae
3) A little bit more information
alex@gendalf:~$ iwconfig
