Searching the Device IDs page [1] for the Vendor:Device ID pairing that you have shown above [10ec:8176], I see -- [quote] pci 10EC:092D kmod-r8192ce pci 10EC:8176 kmod-r8192ce pci 10EC:8177 kmod-r8192ce pci 10EC:8178 kmod-r8192ce pci 10EC:8191 kmod-r8192ce [/quote] So, whilst using the wired connection, just perform the following two commands -- yum remove kmod-8188eu yum --enablerepo elrepo install kmod-r8192ce Alan.
