A Linux kernel module driver for the Realtek RTL8821CE PCIe Wi-Fi chipset, installable via DKMS. It was developed primarily for Arch Linux and Ubuntu and is now in maintenance mode after the maintainer stepped down.

Use cases

  • get wifi working on laptop with Realtek RTL8821CE card
  • install rtl8821ce driver on Ubuntu
  • fix missing wifi adapter on Arch Linux
  • build Realtek wireless kernel module with DKMS
  • enable 802.11ac wifi on Linux

When to choose

  • you have an RTL8821CE chipset and no in-kernel driver works
  • you run Arch, Ubuntu, Debian, Gentoo, or NixOS on kernel > 4.14

When to avoid

  • you use a different Realtek chipset
  • you need active support or new features like power saving
  • you run a distribution or kernel version outside the supported range
