Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.

This software provides you with the Wireless Assistant tool. There are options for selecting any connected Wi-Fi adapter. You are able to configure advanced settings such as the security algorithm, network type and other parameters. Both WPA and WEP security protocols are supported. To test the network protection you can download Wifiway.
The easiest way to set up your NETGEAR WiFi USB adapter is with the NETGEAR Resource CD included with your adapter. If your computer does not have a drive that reads CDs, download the software for your WiFi adapter from the NETGEAR Download Center.
The second manufacturer is who makes the wireless chipset within the card. This is the most important company to know. Unfortunately, it is sometimes the hardest to determine. This is because card manufacturers generally don't want to reveal what they use inside their card. However, for our purposes, it is critical to know the wireless chipset manufacturer. Knowing the wireless chipset manufacturer allows you to determine which operating systems are supported, software drivers you need and what limitations are associated with them. The compatibility section describes the operating systems supported and limitations by chipset.
The madwifi-ng driver is used for the atheros chipsets. This driver does not support any USB atheros devices. However, Atheros acquired Zydas which makes USB chipsets (zd1211 and zd1211b). Atheros has renamed this chipset to AR5007UG. The AR5007UG chipset is NOT supported by the madwifi-ng driver, but it is recommended, because its one of the cheapest chips (about 5, 6$ on eBay) supported by aircrack-ng and offers reliable and stable operation for wireless connectivity. Starting with 2.6.24, AR5007UG(zd1211/zd1211b) can be used with zd1211rw. Madwifi-ng is deprecated and now most supported cards by madwifi-ng should be supported by ath5k or ath9k.
As of kernel 2.6.26 and later, a new driver has been incorporated named as ath5k. This driver, unlike the madwifi-ng driver which requires HAL and was previously proprietary is a HAL-free based driver. Most popular linux distributions would already have this driver included which should provide support for those using such chipsets and preferrably to try injection patches on this driver before reverting back to the madwifi-ng.
Intel wireless cards are common devices found inside most laptops apart from Broadcom, Atheros, Ralink and Realtek. These devices has native linux support and generally do work well for most parts except for Intel's older chipsets such as ipw2200. 3945 owners are recommended to use iwl3945 as the older driver ipw3945 does not have monitor or injection capability and requires ipwraw-ng and is often not easy to work with ipwraw-ng. Owners of 4965 and later has support with iwlagn.
New laptops now normally come with ExpressCard slots. The current problem is that there are not a lot of ExpressCard wireless cards which are compatible with the aircrack-ng suite. However, ExpressCard to PCMCIA/Cardbus adapters have appeared in the market.
The output from dmesg (or /var/log/messages) should show the driver is loaded and should also show loading of any required firmwares. At this point you should be able to configure and use your wireless device.
Please note that Wifi drivers often break and need rebuilding against new point releases, so we may need to rebuild the driver for el7.7 and el8.1 once they are released. If the driver stops working after an update, please feel free to file a bug request at elrepo.org/bugs and either Akemi or I will fix it.
Hi Philip, I am hitting the exact same issue: What I have done is: Install Redhat release is rhel7.6, download kmod-r8822be-0.0-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm and install it sucessfully. However, the modprobe command failed : modprobe:error: could not insert r88wwbe: Required key not available. The wifi adapter is rtl8822BE. 2ff7e9595c
