I have very new Gateway flip top laptop (model GWTC116-2BL) that is using a Realtek RTL8723DU WIFI hardware.
https://www.realtek.com/en/products/com ... /rtl8723du
I found the driver and compiled it for several different latest Puppy versions.
I will use S15Pup64 and Fossapup64 9.5 to try and get it working on.
All of them now show the WIFI device as a selection to use for a WIFI connection.
But it does all the steps to try and make a working connection but does not complete.
Get message connection can not be made with my WIFI router.
Can not get to being able to set the DHCP.
Yes, I am doing the steps correctly and tried several different connection programs, but the Network Wizard was the best one.
I tried a lot of different type connections even no encryption.
I am thinking I still need the firmware for the 8723DU.
But I am not able to find it anyplace so far.
Anyone got an idea on what to do or try?
Note:
I think this may be one of those Window type combo WIFI/Bluetooth devices.
