It is a Realtek Semiconductor device 8176
lspcidrake -v |grep rtl
rtl8192ce: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.|Device 8176 [NETWORK_OTHER]
(vendor:10ec device:8176 subv:10ec subd:9196) (rev: 01)
lsmod shows it's there, but configuring it is a headache till now, so I
tried to build drivers anew I found at Realtek for Linux....
Appreciate any ideas !
Ciao,
