Title: update realtek wi-fi drivers
Post by: bonbob on August 25, 2019, 10:52:53 PM

Can you update firmware-rtlwifi to latest version? Bug with link speed for rtl8821ce seems to be fixed. Or how can I do it by myself? Building drivers needs some kernel sourses or something from it.  :-\

Firmware files are just plain files, placed at the right directory. You can download the latest and put it in your backup or create an extension.

Hello bonbob
You can find the firmware download URL in the info file
http://tinycorelinux.net/10.x/x86/tcz/firmware-rtlwifi.tcz.info

But I’ve been confused since the first post as it’s hard to determine if you’re asking for driver module or firmware ?
