Upgrade from 13.10

[Guest]

I've been trying to upgrade from 13.10, a version that I originally installed to support the RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter on my Toshiba laptop. 14.04 wouldn't recognize it. First, is there support for this adapter on 15.04, and secondly, how do I upgrade in such a way as to not lose all the installed software, settings and docs?

Thanks.

if 13.10 had the drivers for it then all the rest since should as well ,,,,unless it is a rely old device ?

the best way to see is to just make a Live USB/DVD and try it .

perhaps their is a airplane mode switch/key that you accidentally hit and turned off the wireless and/or a fisical switch on the box that turnes it off ,,,,,, or did not have the wireless box checked in the network management widget in the system tray and or it's airplane mode check box.
