Satellite C660-10H - Linux Driver for WiFi card
Posted: 28-Feb-2011 08:44

Hello.
I have a Satellite C660-10H and the WiFi does not work.
With the command $ lspci tells me my driver is RTL8876. I installed a RTL8892CE but works well. It disconnects all the time.

Any advice?
Thanks

Hi lucapepile,

The problem is that on Toshiba website are only Windows drives available because Linux isn’t supported…

I think you should searching for help on some Linux forums. Maybe they can help you find a proper driver for your WLAN card. WLAN cards are used in many different notebooks so I don’t think it’s a Toshiba related properly.

Last but not least I found this:
Do you know some useful website for Linux support on PC?

You say that you do get a connection, so it's possibly not a driver issue at all. Regular disconnects are usually caused by one of two issues -

1 - signal is weak. You can check that by moving to a place known to have a strong signal and no interference.

2 - the most common of all is interference. If you have wireless mouse or keyboard, cordless phones, or anything else using wireless, you may find that physically re-arranging things can make a tremendous difference.

Hi,

Wifi works for me on Toshiba C660 (ubuntu 10.04)after having installed rtl8192ce_linux_2.6.0003.0628.2010.
I still have problems with brightness control.
Driver found here : http://www.touslesdrivers.com/index.php?v_page=23&v_code=29134

Regards.
