  • You're experiencing a very rare problem that I faced too (on moving to Ubuntu 13.10). Please check this question. It will help you with your problem. As a note, it doesn't matter what you're using: a WiFi router, wired broadband, or a 3G dongle modem. That solution works for all. If it doesn't help, please add more details and specifications on what you're getting after applying the method.

  • That didn't seem to work for me (and besides it seems like a very cubersome solution). Perhaps we have a different problem.

The driver that your device uses is problematic but sometimes if we add some parameters to it and change some settings in the router we can get it to work if not we will have to compile an new driver.

First in your router change 802.11bgn to 802.11bg.

Second change the wep encryption to just wpa2 (CCMP)(AES) not (TKIP) if you have that option it will work best.

Third set your wireless channel in the router to 1 or 11 then save the router configuration and reboot it.

Fourth go into network manager at top right corner of the screen and click on edit connections>wireless tab and set IPV6 to ignore.

Now open the terminal CTRL+ALT+_T then copy and paste the following code one line at a time for accuracy:

echo "options rtl8192ce swenc=1 ips=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8192ce.conf
sudo modprobe -rfv rtl8192ce
sudo modprobe -v rtl8192ce

The Realtek drivers (for me the RTL8188ee) are broken from Linux Kernel 3.13 (maybe before) onwards. It seems the kernel developers tried to solve a RTLxxxx driver problem and as a side effect, they broke it. So I guess you have to wait, till someone fix it again. An alternative will be to downgrade to an older kernel version, like the one delivered with Ubuntu LTS 12.04.

I installed the Ubuntu mainline 4.0 kernel on my 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04 with ASUS PCE-N15and things are much better! iwconfig reports 54 Mb/s now instead of 1 Mb/s!

  • Switch over to wireless "n only" on your router and it should go up to 150 Mb/s instead of 54.
