Bug Description
The driver is not pre-installed
This issue is present on both Version 8 "Helena" and version 9 "Isadora"
Upon finding the model of the driver (rtl8192se)
I contacted realtek for a driver.
I downloaded this file, extracted it, and then opened a terminal in its directory and did the following:
make
sudo su
enter password
make
make install
exit
And then reboot/restart and you're good to go.

Is this also a solution for the Toshiba Satellite? Where is the link to the driver? Thanks!
