    Realtek RTL8192EU Wireless LAN 802.11 not working

    Hi Luke. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.

    Have you tried other USB ports which might be governed by another controller?

    Delete/uninstall any driver software in Settings > Apps > Apps & Features and in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start button, then reinstall the latest driver software from here:

    https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/catego...

    Have you tried another USB wireless nano adapter like this one which is best rated on Amazon:

    https://www.amazon.com/OURLiNK-600Mbps-Wireless...
    ?

    I'll give you everything else that works to fix Wifi so that at least something will work. Even if you've already tried a step please try or check it again in sequence. If you need any assistance I'll be standing by here to help:

    Update your drivers from the PC maker's Support Downloads web page using the full model number, HP Serial Number or Dell Service Tag on sticker. Compare the latest drivers available for download with the ones presently installed in Device Manager reached by
    right clicking the Start Menu. Make sure you have the latest BIOS or UEFI firmware, Chipset, Display (Video), Sound, USB3, Bluetooth, Network and all other drivers, or else download and install the latest now.

    If you have the latest network driver then try on it's Driver tab also to Roll Back, or Uninstall and then restart PC to reinstall the driver. Try also all older drivers from Update Driver > Browse > Let Me Pick list working backwards.

    Go to Device Manager > Network Adapters, select Wifi adapter, then Power Management tab, clear the check box to "Allow the computer to turn off the device to save energy." Then on the Advanced tab disable any energy-saving options.

    Enable IPv6 in the network adapter settings:

    Run the fixit from
    https://support.microsoft.com/help/929852
    (Re-enable IPv6 on all nontunnel interfaces) and reboot.

    Right click the network icon in System Tray at bottom right end of task bar to Troubleshoot Problems.

    How to reset network adapter in Windows 10...

    Go to Settings > Network & Internet > WIfi > Manage Known Networks, highlight and remove the network having problems, restart PC to see if it shows up again.

    Try plugging in by ethernet cable to the router to compare, then plug the ethernet cable into the modem (if separate) to see if this might be an issue with the router.

    Try powering off modem, router and PC and then restarting in that order with 1 minute in between each. You may need to reset your router or even optimize it following these steps:

    https://www.lifewire.com/resetting-a-home-netwo...

    http://www.maximumpc.com/article/features/ultim...

    Your router manual is always available from the manufacturer's website for your exact model.

    You also are entitled to Support from your internet provider to get online on all devices. This is always included in the monthly bill. If your router is less than a year old they will also Support getting it connected and optimized.

    Another option is you could replace the wireless adapter with an inexpensive USB nano adapter like this one:
    https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-wireless-network...

    You can also add an extender. The best one I've found is $17 at Amazon, configures itself, and so good I'd never use any other:
    https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Extender-Externa...

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
