  1. Get an internet connection by some other means (like ethernet).
  2. Install kernel headers for your kernel.
  3. Install rtl8821ce-dkms-git from AUR.
  4. Reboot. Wifi should now work.

@djoe Have you searched the forum for your device? IIRC, there have been a number of threads about that particular one.

Hi! I’m a beginner too.
On this forum was an excellent thread for installing this and other wifi drivers too.
It was on the link:
Realtek WiFi Driver Installation (AUR) - Technical Issues and Assistance / Tutorials - Manjaro Linux Forum

Unfortunately is not accessible anymore…
I’ve bookmarked , but unfortunately it has gone.
If someone have a link which works I would be very helpful.
Links that I find are all broken :frowning_face:

It is accessible if you add “archived” at the front:

What happened to the old forum is explained here:

At what step does it fail, and can you post the error you get?

I can’t find it on AUR.

Did you try the link I posted in the second post of this thread? That’s the package in AUR.

Do I need to install kernal headers for that package?

Short and long asnwer: Yes.
