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
