Hi.
I got some usb dongles with the rtl8192eu chip.
COMFAST Wireles-N USB Adapter, Model CF-WU835P.
What is the status of the driver? Will be available in the future?
Tried with the driver from
WNP-UA-005_driver_F85DC3AB-5E10-41B9-80DE-539993DB0BB7.zip
(rtl8192EU_linux_v4.3.1.1_11320.20140505.tar.gz).
Tried with the ndiswrapper.
No success. Any ideas?

It is not available in the fedora distros, not even in rpmfusion.
You might try other sites, like rpmfind.net,
rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/2/simple/2
There are distros, but I fail to recall their domain names :(

Works! Tnx.
Googling for the solution, i filtered out non english entries.
google translate was now my friend.
Downloaded dkms doesn't work properly.
At installation it provides proper 8192eu.ko module.
After kernel upgrade and reboot, dkms installs the old module.
Probably it doesn't clean up and in the next iteration only installs
already compiled module. I'll investigate this further.

NOTE: All drivers can of course run in station mode, but only a few drivers support the
other available wireless modes! Support of cfg80211 also offers benefits.
