                simple instructions - insert dongle first pls
                $ sudo ifconfig eth0 down # cable can remain connected
                $ tce-load -i wifi rtl8188eu
                $ sudo wifi.sh # and follow prompts

                For module parameters, ids etc $ modinfo 8188eu

                If you need power, managed mode etc
                see README.txt in /usr/local/share/doc/8188eu dir
                Those commands will need more TCEs downloaded and installed

                Optional dependency- wireless-db.tcz -read its info please
                               
                dmesg outputs a lot of info.

Got tcz package from PM. It works perfectly, thank you very much!

aus9:
good.

As prev suggested, if you are rarely going to use ethernet....I would suggest you add a blacklist=<modulename> to your bootloader.

inxi -Nxxx reveals the kernel module
dmesg should but for me its revealed towards the tail so

--- Code: ---dmesg | grep eth0
--- End code ---
  does too

2) In the meantime you can reply and ask Rich to mark as solved please

aus9:
Hi

I forgot to mention that if you want this TCE to be able to be booted, it needs to be in your tcedir. So move it there please.

There will always be some TCEs that are private and meant to be private. Example getlocale generates mylocale.tcz
Apps -> Maintenance -> Onboot Maintenance will show mylocale.tcz on the left until you click it and add it to your current boot list.

so for OP once you add it to your tcedir....do above and add it AND wifi.tcz
