This post contains a guide to install the driver for your wifi adaptor.

Here is a summary of the main steps:

Install the required packages

sudo apt update
sudo apt install git build-essential dkms

Download the driver from GitHub and run the installation script:

git clone https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce
cd rtl8821ce
chmod +x dkms-install.sh
sudo ./dkms-install.sh

Restart your system and the wifi should work.

If you need to uninstall it for some reason, return to that directory and run:

chmod +x dkms-remove.sh
sudo ./dkms-remove.sh

first blacklist rtw88_pci & rtw88_core

echo -e "blacklist rtw88_pci\n blacklist rtw88_core" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ blaclist_rtw88.conf

Install the alternative driver-package from the official sources with ethernet or usb-tethering with your cellphone. You ned not any sourcecode from github.

sudo apt install rtl8821ce-dkms

Reboot an check

lsmod | egrep 'cfg80|mac80'
iwconfig
iwlist chan
nmcli dev wifi list

Wifi is present and on? Try to connect.

Alternatively on top of that, utilize `apt download` command. It'll package it to `tar.gz` and you can then install the compressed `.deb` package with `sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb` if you are without network access but have a storage device instead.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
