Wifi Card RTL8723AE Linux Driver/Performance
Posted: Wed Dec 03, 2014 8:37 am
Hi,
I'm currently trying to use the Wifi card in Linux Mint 17.1 (also tried it in Mint 17). The problem is that the card is not operating at full speed of the router (wireless g 54Mbps) and is actually running with 18Mbps Bitrate.
When connecting to the same network with a laptop via wifi Bit rate is at 54Mbps and download speed is around 2.2 MB/s, while Intense PC is around 1.4 MB/s. I am also having a high number of invalid misc packets, so I am guessing that current driver is not functioning well.
Also lots of people have trouble with the drivers on this wificard and Realtek doesn't have a official driver for Linux.
I saw that Linux mint 17 is supported by Intense PC http://www.fit-pc.com/wiki/index.php/In ... :_Software
Do you have a driver for linux ?
Or provide the official ISO image Linux Mint 17 ?
Thanks.
