Magea is capable of lists nearby wireless networks but is not able to
connect. I can only use the Mageia connected by the cable.

See https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Setup_wireless_networking

Trouble shooting wireless problems requires more info. Mageia release, desktop
environment, etc.

I accessed this link. He seemed somewhat outdated. Print screens are
old and even mentions WEP, which is no longer used.

I couldn't make my wireless work with Mageia.

Run mcc, select hardware, then browse and configure hardware. Does it
suggest packages that need installing?

What's the output of (as root) "lspcidrake -v|grep -i wireless"?

Probably best to open a bug report at https://bugs.mageia.org
If you haven't already, register first at https://identity.mageia.org/
Bugzilla does allow attachments.

Unfortunately Network Center has languished for many years now. The
original developer long ago left and noone has picked up the ball to
keep the draknet up to date. There are loads of problems with the
software, and with wpa_supplicant, the main program which does the
connecting.

You could try Network Manager or even the systemd networking tools.
Unfortunately I can give no guidance on those.

However, if you want help you really have to give more information. What
did you do, what kind of netwrork did you try to connect to, what
authentication do they want. What kind of access point do you wnat to
connect to?

I have two other distributions installed on this computer.

In Slackware 15 all I have to do to access the wifi network is click on
the network icon, choose the network and provide the password. In the
previous version I needed to give permissions to the rc.networkmanager
file but the knowledge about Slackware doesn't help to solve the problem
with the Mageia distribution as Slackware doesn't use systemd.

openSUSE Tumbleweed uses systemd but I don't need to go into detail
about how it works. I just need to choose the network and provide the
password.

Providing a means of connecting to the internet is one of the most
basic functions of an operating system. I hoped this was already resolved.

The symptoms sound very much like I saw with an rtl8192eu device before
installing dkms-rtl8192eu. But the "u" indicates that is a usb device,
where the OP's is a pci-e card, so that's probably irrelevant.

A bit of personal research indicates the rtl8188ee driver module has
been part of the kernel since version 3.something. So, it should be there.

Questions suggested by that research:

What is the output of "lsmod | grep rtl8188ee"?

And "locate rtl8188ee | grep -v "debug" | grep .ko"?

You should probably try a Mageia 8 gnome live iso to see if that works properly
in your situation. Gnome uses networkmanager by default rather then drakx-net.

I strongly disagree that the whole of Mageia has languished. Security and bugfix
updates for Mageia 8 continue. Cauldron continues to be updated in preparation for
what will be Mageia 9.

There are known problems with drakx-net in some situations where network manager
or systemd-network work better, while in other situations drakx-net works better
then network manager. They each have their strengths and weaknesses.

As to translations, if there are problems with Brazilian Portuguese, please
consider joining the translation team to help out. As an English only person
I can't help with that.

Regarding the delays in Mageia 9: At present, other then newer versions of some
packages there is almost no difference between Mageia 8 and the current cauldron.
Putting together a new release, testing the iso images, etc. is a lot of work,
both for the people who produce it, and the people who will upgrade from Mageia 8
to Mageia 9 when it's released.

Mageia 8 support will continue for 3 months after Mageia 9 has been released. The
longer Mageia 9 is delayed, the longer Mageia 8 will be supported.

Marja van Waes indicated a solution:

O drakx-net nem sempre funciona. Por exemplo, porque ainda usa iwlist &
wext em vez de iw & nl80211. Podes tentar mudar para NetworkManager, que
funciona melhor para muitos.

Drakx-Net doesn't always work. For example, because it still uses Iwlist
& Wext instead of IW & NL80211. You can try to change to networkmanager,
which works better for many.

I like the Mageia. I'm using it at the moment but I want to be
realistic. One indication of the loss of interest on the distribution is
it appears in position 57 in the distrowatch.

Distrowatch is a popularity poll among distrowatch members who bother to respond
to their polls. No more, no less. It has no correlation to any distribution's
actual usage.

They didn't ask me. If they had, I would have placed Mageia at the top
of my personal list, and the bottom, and the middle. Mageia is the only
distro I need, the only one I use, and the only one I want.

I rarely pay any attention to the "Top XX Widgets in 20XX" type of list.
I don't want what's popular, I want what gets the job done - for me.

They don't ask, just count the clicks. Each of the 100 distributions
listed there has its fans. The truth is that there is no objective and
reliable way to know the amount of users of each distribution.

Especially with Mageia. There is no "phone home" function built in to Mageia that
gathers user's info about the number or type of installs. We intentionally do not
try to collect statistics on the user base.

Getting iso images and updates is done through the mirrors, which Mageia has no
control over. The mirrorlist utility does contact Mageia to get info on which
mirrors are where, but using the mirrorlist is optional. I use specifically
chosen mirrors on most of my installs, so mirrorlist is not used on those installs.

The only info that is gathered is what's required to use online services such
as the mailing lists, forums, and things like bugzilla.

Gathering user info is useful for distributions that sell advertising, or want
to be able to brag about how many users they have, but is not needed for a
community built distribution. All that matters is keeping the community satisfied
so building and maintaining Mageia continues.

I recently installed wpa_supplicant 2.10-2 from cauldron, recompiled for
Mga8. The readme says that it has improved the choice of the BSSID for a
given SSID, and it seems to have improved the choice by more often
picking a strong signal over weak signals (it used to be that
wpa_supplicant would randomly pick the BSSID to try to connect to, and
thus would usually pick weak signals over strong ones-- maing the
connection rather falky. It would also pick the first ssid in
wpa_supplicant that it could see over the one you told it to use. I do
not know if the latter probem is fixed-- I hacked
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth to make a new
wpa_supplicant.conf containing only the selected SSID in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/wireless.d so wpa_supplicant only kknew
about the selected ssid, and I have not tested the new wpa_supplicant to
see if it is better behaved front.
Anyway network-center does seem to work better with the new version.
I also hacked
/lib/libDrakX/network/connection/wireless.pm to replace wext with
nl80211 and have it run sudo from the network-center icon
sudo /usr/bin/draknetcenter
so that it uses wpa_cli instead of iwlist (because it is running as
root-- monitor.pm checks and if it are running as root, it uses wpa_cli
rather than iwlist-- wpa_cli only works for root)
