I'm glad you got it working. Now you know why I recommend spending 40 euro
for
an AP rather than trying to use a 600 euro computer for that purpose. BTW, I own
4 AP/routers.

My goal was to have a low power server that runs 24h for wireless, domotic, ... but I didn't find how to increase the signal and remove the power mgt.
A part of "modinfo rtl8192ce" says
parm: ips:Set to 0 to not use link power save (default 1) (bool)
Load the modules with "sudo modprobe rtl8192ce ips=0" or create the appropriate
rtl8192ce.conf file, and power saving is disables.
The RTL8187L, the chip in the AWUS036H will never work in AP mode. It has only
one hardware queue, and getting the timing right for beacons is extremely
difficult, and not worth the effort.
Have you had to add parameters in your rtl8192ce.conf file in modprobe?
Except for testing, I use no module parameters. If any were always necessary, I
would change the default.

I found this device in my garage :) which is known to be working well so I may try it just to compare the signal strengths between both
rtl8187 Alfa AWUS036H 0x0bda 0x8187
Again I would like to thank you again for all your reactive support in order to help me making my on-board pci wifi card working. At least I can now make a choice depending on the signal length.
FYI I did find that the BW was quote low with the rtl8188ce AP. Did you notice the same issue?
