Upgraded wireless drivers featuring enhanced capabilities
Just to be sure everyone understand, use it at your own risk. Let me restate that: I’m offering these drivers today specifically for the Realtek 8822CE Wi-Fi chip, which is commonly found on most OEM and vendor laptops—especially those built around AMD. However, the standard stock versions restrict advanced functionalities and limit full control over the chip’s capabilities. Now, this update supports all 8822CE models from various brands such as Acer, Asus, Lenovo, MSI, HP, and more, as long as they match the model number.
Today I’m sharing my “unlocked” or “hidden” drivers by modifying the .inf files, making those advanced options visible to users. Here’s what we’re doing: I rename the Wi-Fi display name to differentiate between official and modified versions, and I add or adjust lines in the .inf file to unlock Realtek’s advanced features.
Installation steps:
- Remove your existing Realtek driver (check the box if you want).
- Open the Setup.bat file.
- Follow the instructions—done!
Note: The method used is somewhat outdated because the new drivers are signed. Thanks to AAF Optimus for his assistance. Consider supporting him with a donation whenever possible.
If you’d like, I can walk you through the process in more detail.
Updated the download location to a dedicated folder for better handling of upcoming Realtek Wi-Fi driver releases
I refreshed the drivers with extra capabilities that are now unlocked or hidden in the latest release. Around this time, I also expanded compatibility for various Wi-Fi chips. The supported hardware IDs for the new driver are:
- PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_B822&SUBSYS_29501A3B
- PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_B822&SUBSYS_29521A3B
