I have done a frugal installation, but I can not get my WiFi to work on Linux puppy lucid 528. When I go to the network wizard it doesn't even recognize a wireless interface. It just recognizes Ethernet. I have a Compaq cq57 with an AMD C-50 processor, 2GB of ddr3 ram, windows 7 64 bit. The WiFi works in windows, and Ubuntu. The interface is RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n.
Thanks

I recently acquired a Toshiba Satellite L655 laptop,
it comes with the Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless Lan 802.11n PCI-E .NIC

of the drivers that are suggested in this and other treads and I have failed miserably.Please help me with this one.
Thank you for your efforts in helping the Puppy Community. "

" Make sure your Puppy version is actually 5.2.8, not 529,
otherwise the driver will be incompatible. "

" r8192ce_pci is for RTL8188CE/8192CE-VA4 chips "
