Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n - Unable To Connect Through Wireless
Sep 26, 2012
I have just purchased a new laptop (HP Pavilion G series) for my studies at university. The wirless works fine when I am connect to my network at home, but I am only able to connect to the university's network when an ethernet cable is plugged in. Everybody else I know, who has a similar setup to myself has no problems connecting to the network without the ethernet cable and I was curious as to why this might be.
I am running on Windows 7 and the wifi adapter is a Realtek RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n
As I say I am quite a rookie when it comes to computers

I have a wireless modem/router that I connect to my PC thru USB cable and working fine. I newly installed Lan Card (Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC) and it doesn't connect to internet. It says connected with 100Mbps but Received data bytes are ZERO.
I did ipconfig/all and got all static address I had given while setup. When I "ping 127.0.0.1" it works fine. When I ping 'default gateway IP' it also sends/receives data. When I try to install the driver I got in the CD along with the LAN card, it says "you have already installed recent driver needed etc. " and doesnt allow me to install from the CD. Currently it shows 'Driver Used as : c:windowssystem32driversRtnicxp.sys'

Where can I go and download free software for 802.11n technology for RTL8188CE drive/adapter 802.11 b/g/n? I need the full power of the n technology since the n technology in the adapter I have was in its preliminary developmental stages. I have a mini pc and operate with Windows 7.

I have a Gigabyte motherboard that ive just installed into my dads new PC and the gigabit LAN has started taking 60 seconds to connect to router, very annoying...sitting with browser open waiting for it too connect... the issue seem to first appear during windows updates, i uninstalled device driver, rebooted and reinstalled the driver off disk... this sorted the issue.. THEN windows installed more updates, however these were nothing to do with networking (Office updates) and its back ...ive tried downloading the driver from gigabyte (newer) but still the problem persists...

I can't connect to the internet. I'm currently using a USB internet, but the problem still exists. So it's not working with either cable or USB internet. It just won't connect. I've thought for a long time that there is probably something wrong with my network card, but I've run some tests that I saw on the internet, and it appears as if the network card is fine. I've also thought that there might have been a program or something that I installed that could have caused this problem, but I can't find the problem. When I go to the device manager, I can find one network card called: "Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller". I've tried to reinstall the card, but it doesn't work. I can't find any software on the internet for this card either.

About two weeks ago, I took out the old motherboard of my HP computer and put in a new ASUS M4A88T-M. The board is amazing, especially for the money, except that I can't connect to the internet.So, for the last two weeks I've power-cycled about a billion times, ipconfig /this/that/and the next thing over and over, I've winsocked, I've turned programs on and off and on again, checked that the LAN is enabled in BIOS, firewall is off, and probably a bunch other things from the 100's of google pages I've searched.I spent 45 minutes on the phone with my ISP, and the guy was 99% sure there is something wrong with the NIC. Windows says that the device is working correctly, and I think that it is. There must be some setting, some driver, something that will reconnect me to the internet.

I have a realtek wireless usb adaptor on my hp desktop that was working until I took it out of the usb on the front of the tower and plugged it into a usb on the back of the tower. Now I can't get internet at all even if I move it back to the front! My network doesn't show up under connections. Both the playstation 3 and the netbook are picking up the wireless signal from the router.

When I install a micro-wifi-usb 802.11n with "Realtek RTL8188CU" on a old notebook with Windows XP I get maximum 1.5 to 2Mbits/s. Though installed on a newer notebook with Windows 7 I get 30Mbits/s.Other wifi-usb, Cisco Linksys WUSB100v2 does work on that Windows XP machine at 30Mbit/s, but the dongle is much larger The router Cisco WRT320N is just 5meters away and I always have excellent signal strength.I tried some other drivers without any luck. On the site of Realtek I don't find any driver except with some letter diverence at the end of RTL8188CU, which I also tried.

On PC windows said, that maybe something wrong with the driver, I reinstalled it a few times, but same happened again, again. Both has Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

I'm trying to connect to the internet on another PC (on my desktop, not this laptop I'm sending this request on). I know my network is working OK, because I'm on it now (on my laptop), but the Realtek adapter is not connecting on my destop PC.

I have a RealTek 8187 USB wireless adapter on my desktop computer that has an associated utility that allows me to manually select which of several competing WAP's to connect to. But that is good only for that particular adapter. My laptop has a different make of adapter that does not have this capability and many of my friends and neighbors lack the capability also. I have a situation where when I turn on my desktop, it automatically connects to a certain WAP, presumably because it has the strongest signal. However, at certain times of the day, traffic or other unknown interference blocks internet access for varying periods of time. I can usually go to my RealTek utility and switch connections to another WAP that has somewhat less signal strength (for example from Channel 1 to Channel 9 -- all within the same Wi-Fi network). Almost always I can restore internet access by doing this.is there generic software available that allows manually selecting WAP channels regardless of the particular brand of wireless adapter being used. Or is there some setting in either Windows XP or Windows 7 that would allow selectively choosing to connect to one channel of a network rather than another even if the signal strength is less.

I am running an ASUS laptop with Windows 7. My wireless has been working fine, but my room is quite far from the router, so I bought a signal-booster USB aerial made by Realtek (REALTEK 11n USB Wireless LAN Driver and Utility). It came with a small software CD too which I installed, and it worked fine for two days and boosted my wireless signal.However (you knew it was coming, the story can't stay happy) soon the red light on the USB booster stopped blinking and it showed the red 'x' where my wifi connections are. I couldn't get it to re-establish a connection without doing a full system restore and re-installing the USB signal booster, which would then work again for a short amount of time (maybe a day, maybe an hour). And worse, now when the USB booster is unplugged from the computer my laptop will not return to recognising wireless connections like it did before I installed the USB signal booster. It simply does not find any connections - the only time it does is directly after I have re-installed the software from the small disc which came with the Realtek USB signal booster.
I have now uninstalled the Software and anything made by Realtek but still it is finding no connections.Now I would just like to find a way to get back to where I started when my computer was finding all wireless connections like normal... a connection with a weak signal is better than this nightmare of constantly restoring my computer just to get a brief connection

I recently bought a new Dell Inspiron 7600 pc running on windows 7 home premium and to enable access to our wireless internet I installed a Realtek 8185 wireless pci adaptor. It has worked fine (although not without the occasional blip) but recently it has stopped working. I could connect to our wireless network but connection came with a small exclamation mark on the wireless connection icon in the system tray. I tried reinstalling the most up to date drivers I could find on the realtek download website and this has removed the problem of the exclamation mark with the wireless connection claiming it now has internet access. However the internet is now so slow (vastly slower than before these problems began) I get timed out errors whenever I try to access any web pages. I have ruled out the router being an issue as my two housemates' computers are working just fine.

trying to connect an old PC to my home wireless network.I brought home a PC I have used for years at my office. I have it configured with a Realtek wireless card and was able to connect it to my office wireless network without a problem.But, when I try to set it up at home, it won't take. I have a dlink router that is working fine with several Mac computers in my home, so I know the router and network are up and running fine.The PC uses Windows XP. The icon in the lower right corner says dlink is connected and there is strong signal strength. However, when I check the dlink status, it shows that 2,573 "packets" are sent, while "0" are received.I've tried to connect to the internet using Mozilla, Safari, and Explorer. Each says the server cannot be found and that the internet is not connected.

I recently reformatted my laptop to get rid of Vista and now run XP. Stupidly, I didn't know what I was doing 100% and now can't connect to a wireless network. I've looked at guides on how to with XP and it is saying to do it through Network Connections. I have no wireless sections in my NC, so it's basically like XP doesn't realise I've got wireless capabilities.I have installed all of the drivers that there are, multiple times. If I press the wireless button, the window with the Bluetooth, WLAN and UMTS still comes up.

I have just re-installed Windows Vista on my Toshiba Laptop and it connects fine to my virgin media router using a LAN line but when I try connecting wirelessly, no networks are found. I've tried up-dating the driver files form the C: drive(Window) and also from the net but with no joy.. Network adapter is a Realtek RTL 8187B. I hate admitting defeat as Im sure the solution is probably something simple..

Just recently built a new system with this wifi card in it, and I am experiencing random lag spikes of up at 2000ms when pinging my E3000 router. I've tried the stock firmware on the router as well as the tomato variety I was using. I've tried both Windows 8 and Linuxmint 14 and the problem still exists. I did not have this issue on my laptop, nor do I have the problem with my wife's laptop. Is there any sort of setting in the bios that might affect this that I am overlooking?I'm about to just call timewarner and have them relocate the cable modem to this room so I do not have to deal with wireless.

Since successfully restoring my laptop to factory settings I have been unable to connect using my Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection.Initially it worked, but after a while it stopped. I have completed several system restores, and the wireless connection works for a few days. On the last occasion (after installing windows updates) I received the dreaded blue screen and have been unable to connect.I am not sure if it is related to installing new windows updates as prior to restoring to factory settings I had no issues with my wireless connection.I am able to connect using the ethernet cable and I am currently able to connect using Pluscom wireless usb adapter.

I recently used my dad's Acer Aspire 5040 and saw that he was using xp service pack 2. I thought i'd do him a good turn by putting service pack 3 on and now i can't get it to connect to the wireless router.At first it was saying "you are connected to this network" in the list, but still saying "Not connected" in the top right.I thought it may need updated drivers so I have installed everything from the Acer site, including the Atheros Client Utility.
Now, when i use the auto settings it defaults to the ip 169.254.161.135 with the default gateway the same, but my router gateway is 10.1.1.1. so it says it has limited or no connectivity.I try to change the settings manually and everything goes green and says connected but it still wont access the internet or ping the other computers.I have tried resetting the router as I thought it may have been that not resolving DNS addresses but my netbook is connecting to it fine.

I've recently reinstalled a fresh windows xp operating system onto an old laptop. I've been through some trouble getting the drivers installed, but now I've finally completed that.[URL] I cannot connect to my home's WEP secured wireless network to which I have the password. After I followed the steps detailed in the link, instead of saying "detecting network type," the loading bar says "waiting for the network..." and after about 30 seconds, it disappears and nothing happens.I can connect to my router by directly connecting it with an Ethernet cord without a problem. And I know that the laptop is capable of connecting to a wireless network. I was able to connect to a nearby neighbors unsecured wifi, however it was with a very slow connection due to the distance and weak signal. It will just not connect to my own.

So, my computer was having some serious issues, but the internet worked just fine. Me and a friend live in the same building and we're sharing a wireless connection and splitting the cost. I had to reformat my computer (it was windows XP SP3), but when I reinstalled windows it's SP2. I installed the wireless drivers and such, and those work great. However, I try to connect to the network 'Cay13' which is the one I'm sharing with my friend but it won't connect. It will just keep saying 'waiting for the network 'cay13' to connect to the network'. It won't come up with an error, it will just stop and refresh the wireless networks. I will then get a bubble that says 'Unable to connect to preferred wireless networks., Windows will keep trying.' etc... My friend's computer connects just fine so it doesn't seem like it's the router, and I've tried every which way from sunday to configure, connect, uninstall/reinstall the wireless drivers, etc.

My son's laptop suddenly stopped being able to connect to the internet via wireless. I can see it okay but just unable to connect. I've checked the drivers and they are up to date. It shows on my network when wired and I've checked with the virus software and I can see no reason for it to be blocked.

i cannot connect to a certain wireless network. The router can take upto 4 laptops and this one will be the third so itis not a question of to many.All the other laptops can conect to the router when the pass key is put in but this computer will not. This computer will connect to other networks but not the one at home. When i put the pass key that it asks into the computer it says that it is not the right one. What am i doing wrong or is there something missing from the computer. Not very experienced at this so be patient and spell it out in laymen terms
