I just received my IPC-D8x2-C3517V-H500-WB-XLM-FM4U.
Intense PC
Intel Core i7-3517UE
64 bit dual core
1.7 GHz 17W TDP
802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, 2 antennas, 150 Mbit/s
When I boot up Linux Mint (Maya) it does not appear that my wireless 802.11b/g/n is working.
1) I have no wireless icon on the tray.
2) I go to networking and only see the 2 Ethernet wired connections.
3) I have also gone to H/W Additional Drivers in System Settings and do not see any additional drivers or H/W.
4) Under Wireless Network Drivers I do not have any listings
5) Under Network Connections in the Wireless Tab I cannot configure any networks since I do not have any active wireless h/w. I can see my wired connections without any issues.
6) When I run an lshw command under PCI:3 I see Realtek Semi Conductor Network Controller do I need to install the driver for this? Do you have a link to this installer package? What is the part number?
Any ideas?

Re: Wireless not working
I installed xubuntu 12.10 on Intense PC Pro and the wireless interface is not available (ifconfig -a etc.). I tried to install the driver package, but got this:
The wireless interface was working under Linux Mint and the Realtek chip 8723 shows up in lspci listing. How do I get the driver running?
Code: Select all
# dpkg -i /tmp/rtlwifi-dkms_0007.0809.2012.deb
