For example, if one was looking for a PCI device: {{{ lspci -vvnn | grep Network 04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter [10ec:8176] (rev 01) }}} It's the ''''Realtek'''', ''''RTL8188CE'''', and ''''[10ec:8176] (rev 01)''''. * Driver - For a PCI device: {{{ lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network | grep Kernel Kernel driver in use: rtl8192ce }}} It's the ''''rtl8192ce''''. * Works "out of the box" * Yes - It works perfectly with no manual modifications, or degraded performance. * No - It doesn't work at all, has degraded performance, or requires manual configuration to make it work. Please add a comment to what you had to do to get it to work if this was possible, as well as a URL to an outstanding Launchpad bug report to address the issues encountered. |

B of this card will not work out-of-the-box with Hoary--the madwifi drivers that shipped with Hoary are too old.

For WPA-PSK I needed to install wpasupplicant (not included in Ubuntu before v6.06). I used the Debian Sid package without any problem. This card also works with ndiswrapper. I used a D-Link DI-624+ router to test it. (upgraded firmware of the router, not related to linux nor the wifi card, router rebooted itself even when connecting a windows machine with a ethernet cable, applied last firmware, now doing fine). Update: On Edgy recognized out of the box by Wireless LAN Manager including WEP. WPA works with Knetworkmanager. On Feisty, requires linux-restricted-modules. Works with Knetworkmanager on WPA. WEP not tested.|| || || DWL-G650+ || ? || [[WifiDocs/Driver/acx100|acx100]] || No || No || No || Does not work for me unless I recompile the pci_acx module with latest patches. After that it works. WEP not yet supported for acx111 cards. Added_note: I confirm this card does not work with a default Hoary install: despite the fact that it worked fine with my Hoary install from Array 5. Go figure. The fault seems to be related to an error in loading the firmware which is present in the hotplug firmware folder. || || || DWL-G650+ || ? || no (ndiswrapper) || No || Yes || No || Works with WEP.

You have DWA-181(up to kernel 3.10) or DWA-131, but there's no official support for this system. That's why drives which you can get are for the old kernels and haven't been updated then. |

Summary
- Model - This is the full device model as noted on the box.
Chipset - Chipset vendor name, chipset name, vendor code, and device code. For example, if one was looking for a PCI device:
lspci -vvnn | grep Network 04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter [10ec:8176] (rev 01)
It's the 'Realtek', 'RTL8188CE', and '[10ec:8176] (rev 01)'.
Driver - For a PCI device:
lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network | grep Kernel Kernel driver in use: rtl8192ceIt's the 'rtl8192ce'.
- Works "out of the box"
- Yes - It works perfectly with no manual modifications, or degraded performance.
- No - It doesn't work at all, has degraded performance, or requires manual configuration to make it work. Please add a comment to what you had to do to get it to work if this was possible, as well as a URL to an outstanding Launchpad bug report to address the issues encountered.
Note on D-Link USB modules
A response from D-Link costumer support on which USB modules they support on Linux;
2016-10-19 16:54:00 10000941 GMT+1
120 Unassigned/New 200 Waiting for Customer
You have DWA-181(up to kernel 3.10) or DWA-131, but there's no official support for this system. That's why drives which you can get are for the old kernels and haven't been updated then.
Regards, D-Link Technical Support
So no official drivers exists for any D-Link USB modules after kernel-3.10.

The device ID was removed from hostap_cs.c during the merge of those sources into the kernel, and for some reason is in orinoco_cs (likely because the DWL-650 works with orinoco_cs).
