Wireless doesn't work for RTL8188ER WLAN chip
shariqislam786 opened this issue · comments
After a lot of fiddling, i was able to install original realtek bootloader it booted with below bootlog, but wifi doesn't work my chip is RTL8188ER, Can you please provide some pointers where can i start trying to fix it? I am fairly determined, evident from the fact that i recompiled bootloader from the sources to support the flash chip i replaced the original chip with :).
Booting...
