Apparently the standard r8192e_pci is not playing well with your wifi device.

So just reverse my original suggestion - install rcrsn51's vendor-driver,
then delete the standard driver so it won't compete -
use ROX to browse to
/lib/modules/2.6.37.6/kernel/drivers/staging/
and delete the file "r8192e_pci.ko"
Now run this command -
Code:
depmod

then reboot, and the new rtl8192se (provided by rcrsn51) should automatically load.

why not move this thread there and leave a shadow link?
Ah! If only I understood your suggestions, darkcity.

Do you mean this thread is locked, or the other one?

To move and shadow. Howto?

Well still no wireless LAN Sad
I've been round tempestuous' and rcrsn51' loop twice just to make sure I hadn't included a typo somewhere.

If I look at what is loaded
Code:
# lsmod | grep r8
r8169                  26161  0
mii                     2710  1 r8169
# lsmod | grep rt
agpgart                18200  3 drm,intel_agp,intel_gtt

Is it possible to use a Windows driver?

I did some more googling and came up with this link
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/wifi-issues-samsung-np-n130-ubuntu-netbook-9-1-a-774764/
which linked to Windows drivers
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PFid=9&Level=6&Conn=5&ProdID=177&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true
But the original link pointed to XP drivers in 8192U which seems no longer to exist.
However there is an XP driver download there. Could that be used?

Type
Code:
modinfo rtl8192se

Does it find the driver? If not, you need to reinstall my PET.

Then type
Code:
modprobe rtl8192se

ERROR: modinfo: could not find module rtl8192se

I assume you mean petget-20111130? The only reference I could find in Package Manager. Then I ran modinfo again with same result.

No. I mean the rtl_92ce_92se_92de-k2.6.37.6.pet that I posted on Page 1 of this thread.

There is one more command to try:
Code:
dmesg

Does it show anything regarding the wifi module?

How about updating the /etc/modules/firmware.dep file with this row:
rtlwifi:rtl8192ce.ko,rtl8192cu.ko,rtl8192se.ko,rtl8192de.ko,r8712u.ko
