Hi Guys:
Im new in OpenSUSE, and i have a problem. My laptop wireless adapter its not working. I buy the wireless adapter TL-WN723N from TP-LINK. But, i cant found how to install, i only found a Russian post about this.
Depending on a few factors, the TL-WN723N might be supported “out of the box”, first we need to figure out what version of the USB dongle it is.
- Run lsusb
and post the results here;
And put the results in CODE tags like this!
- Make sure kernel-firmware package is installed as the dongle requires the firmware
If kernel-firmware was not installed, remove the USB stick and re-insert it after installing the firmware.
Thanks you for aswering me.
The command returned
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 1bcf:0005 Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc.
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0cf3:3005 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR3011 Bluetooth
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0c45:64be Microdia
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
And the kernel-firmware is already installed
The relevant device is…
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
This should have existing kernel support va the r8188eu driver.
What does the following report?
usb-devices
You could refine that search with
usb-devices|awk '/8179/' RS="
"
The kernel module should be loaded when the device is plugged in.
This should show the wireless device node present
ip link
I note from re-reading your opening post that you mentioned
My laptop wireless adapter its not working. I buy the wireless adapter TL-WN723N from TP-LINK.
I wonder if your wireless device is soft-blocked perhaps? If your inbuilt device is disabled, that can affect any other connected wifi devices as well. You may need to install the ‘rfkill’ package first.
Check status with
/usr/sbin/rfkill list
If necessary, unblock wifi with
sudo /usr/sbin/rfkill unblock wifi
then check if a wireless device node exists again.
My laptop wireless adapter its not working
And please also post:
/sbin/lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net
No. The problem is the internal wireless adapter. I have two boot systems (Windows 7 and OpenSUSE), on both OS, the adapter it does not work correctly, if i have the router next it, the wifi signal us minimal. That’s why I bought the TL-WN723N.

The return of usb-devices it’s too big, but i attach it if you need it

The eth0 is the ethernet adapter, wlan0 is the wireless adapter of the laptop and wlan1 is a wireless adapter from a friend.
This doesn’t quite make sense to me. Please run
/usr/sbin/hwinfo --wlan

link/ether 98:de:d0:12:b6:2e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
The MAC address prefix 98:de:d0 is associated with Tp-link Technologies Co.,ltd. It should be just a matter of configuring a connection with NetworkManager.
Sorry, my mistake rotfl! wlan1 is the TL-N723N

When you plug it in and a wireless device node exists for it, what is then stopping you from configuring a wireless connection via Network Manager?
Sorry for the delay, i was working in a MySQL cluster in Xubuntu. But Ive returned. When i run lsusb, the console return this

This should show the wlan* node name associated with that device.
Are you using NetworkManager or wicked to manage your network?
I read other post about TLWN725N, this wireless adapter and the TLWN723N had the same ID: 0bda:8179 and I download and install the git repository

I note that the original and compiled driver are both present…
Driver Info #0:

Perhaps that is causing a problem here. You could try blacklisting the r8188eu module so that only the latter loads perhaps.
I add r8188eu to blacklist, but
the command hwinfo --wlan return
