  • Did you check 'dmesg' for any kernel related output? Maybe the Realtek driver is not installed or enabled. – Arijit Chatterjee Dec 22 '16 at 14:37
  • no error from dmesg – JFab Dec 22 '16 at 14:53
  • well actually i found this one – JFab Dec 22 '16 at 14:56

  • Okay, seems broken driver. Try reinstalling the driver from Ubuntu Repo. – Arijit Chatterjee Dec 22 '16 at 15:01
  • please any hints for this ? is there a removal process to work on ? – JFab Dec 22 '16 at 15:02
  • i tried these two techniques. the first one worked and came live a short time and disaeppeared. http://askubuntu.com/questions/545238/how-to-install-wifi-driver-ralink-rt3290 – JFab Dec 22 '16 at 15:05
  • Hope this helps http://askubuntu.com/a/557427/519116. Lastly, if needed 'sudo modprobe rt3290sta' – Arijit Chatterjee Dec 22 '16 at 15:05

  • I have both solutions installed. how do i remove the first one ? – JFab Dec 22 '16 at 15:14
