Everything works great in Gnome, so I'm assuming it is a KDE issue lol.
I'm used to Gnome anyway (:
Oh, and on a final note, hopefully a more solveable one:
My internet in Linux is not as fast as in Windows.

Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service smbd reload
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the reload(8) utility, e.g. reload smbd

I also installed the Linux driver from Realtek's site, but I'm going to trying the Windows driver + ndiswrapper in hopes of a better speed (:
Any other ideas though?
