Tony,
Thanks for your response. Can you advise as to the availability of the
new rtw88 driver? As it appears to be under development, I could not
locate a copy of the code for local compilation.
David,
Use the command 'git clone http://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git -b rtw88'
to get a copy of the new driver for RTL8822BE and RTL8822CE in a stand-alone
form. All that is needed is 'cd rtlwifi_new && make && sudo make install'. This
version will build on kernels v4.4 and newer. As I have time, I will be
backporting to kernels at least as old as 4.0.
I would appreciate your comments and bug reports.
Larry
