Your help is appreciated!

Saeed,

The only help I can be with this is to refer you to https://askubuntu.com/questions/983251/ ... d723-issue

You have a card that's not yet supported by the kernel.

There are other results with a "Realtek Device d723" google search.

Good luck

[saeedbeliever]

I got my WiFi working, I installed a RTL8723DE module for Linux Kernel 4.10.0-38-generic

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/smlinux/rtl8723de.git -b 4.10-down
sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de
sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414
sudo depmod -a
reboot
