I ended up emailing Realtek in order to get the r8192e pci linux drivers. I installed them and then everything worked fine except when returning from sleep, everything froze, so what I then did was to make sure the modules were unloaded when put to sleep and reloaded when woken up. Just make sure /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/55NetworkManager has something like this somewhere in it:
Code:
case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
modprobe -r r8192e_pci
suspend_nm
;;
thaw|resume)
modprobe r8192e_pci
resume_nm
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
till now everything works great except sometimes i have to wake it up twice before its "fully" awake, but other than that, the wireless works great.
