As a footnote. Don't go looking for cheap wifi chips!

@hunter0one: That's great news. And suspending works too? About rtl8xxxu, you should still blacklist it because there is no guarantee the system will try rtlwifi first every time it boots.

@Bitterblue: Suspending also works. I then blacklisted rtl8xxxu and rebooted and its still working as expected. :)

Code:

$ lsmod | grep rtl
rtl8192cu              86016  0
rtl_usb                24576  1 rtl8192cu
rtl8192c_common        69632  1 rtl8192cu
