Good morning all. I've changed from windows 10 to linux though i have license due to f...ing updates and i want to become a programmer as well. Watched the installation video in youtube and installed os even though it didn't recognize my network adapter. I googled to find a driver for wifi and bluetooth. while installing i'm facing lot of errors. When i'm using windows i know the driver is Realtek8723 for wifi. don't find any sound card or wifi card when entered lsusb or lspci. please help me with this issue. Thanks for your time.

This is not the place for newbies to learn simple things. You should consult the Forums at whatever distro you have selected.

Hi I used your repos of rtlwifi_new earlier now I formatted my system and when I tried to install the same I couldn't find you repo. I cloned the link but it says it doesn't exist. Can you give me the link tonyour rtlwifi_new8723be driver

lwfinger commented 3 years ago

No. It was deleted because the driver in the kernel was the same as in the repo for rtl8723be. If you are using a kernel older than 5.1, then get the driver from the Backports project.

Can you send me the exact link . I clone and tried one from backport it didn't work but I thing I got ut wrong. I have rtl8723be wifi drivers on HP 15 model. I hope you can send me the link.

What kernel are you running? Until you tell me that, I cannot help you at all.

Qammarbhat commented 3 years ago

Linux 5.5.0-kali2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.5.17-1kali (2020-04-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux.

With 5.5.0, you should just run the built-in kernel driver.

Qammarbhat commented 3 years ago

When I installed the kali linux there was no wifi and there is no wifi. But I have the rtl8723be wifi chipset and if I install window the wifi is pre installed. Previously on kali 2019.4 I used your repo to install wifi and it worked really well. I wasn't worried about wifi untill I realized you deleted it . Can you send me your repo files via anything you like. I tried everything in 2019 only yours worked. I know today only your repo will work. Please share the older repo of rtlwifi_new or please do tell me the steps I need to get wifi on hp15

You should only have to boot as kernel 5.5 has the driver built in - it is the same driver that you used before.

Check the output of dmesg to see if you are missing the firmware. If not, then post the output of 'lspci -nn'.

I installed wifi in kali linux from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linux-firmware.git/ but everytime I try to use monitor mode it freezes my whole computer . I tried airmon-ng start wlan0, wifite and wifite --kill but everytime my whole laptop freezes. the output of dmesg is : [ 39.062098] rtw_8723de 0000:03:00.0: stop vif 0e:bf:b6:7f:fa:ca on port 0 [ 39.211084] rtw_8723de 0000:03:00.0: start vif 9c:30:5b:12:4f:7b on port 0 [ 40.533693] wlan0: authenticate with 1c:18:4a:6a:ca:90 [ 40.792039] wlan0: send auth to 1c:18:4a:6a:ca:90 (try 1/3) [ 40.830805] wlan0: authenticated [ 40.830978] wlan0: associating with AP with corrupt probe response [ 40.831554] wlan0: associate with 1c:18:4a:6a:ca:90 (try 1/3) [ 40.893702] wlan0: RX AssocResp from 1c:18:4a:6a:ca:90 (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=5) [ 40.893734] rtw_8723de 0000:03:00.0: sta 1c:18:4a:6a:ca:90 joined with macid 0 [ 40.894114] wlan0: associated [ 41.570385] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready [ 49.915319] fuse: init (API version 7.31) [ 1200.307388] rfkill: input handler disabled

also when I check what wifi card I have in linux using lspci it shows realtek8723de but when I check using my laptop serial number and model number hp.com it shows I have rtl8723be.

I have a question for you. Do you think that your computer uses the on-line HP literature to determine what type of wireless interface you have? Of course not - it scans the PCI bus using the same code as lspci. Believe me, you have an RTL8723DE.

That reference you provided is for Intel wifi firmware. That would do nothing for a Realtek card.

Now, since you told me incorrect information earlier, my info was equally bad. This is a new driver. I have no idea why your computer freezes when you go into monitor mode. You will need to communicate with the people that wrote the driver. I did not.

To get the latest driver, you need to git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88.git That is the latest driver for RTL8723DE.

If that still fails to go into monitor mode, then you need to follow the instructions concerning reporting problems in README.md of that new repo.
