How to install wifi driver

edit

Hi, I respectully ask you for help, I have spent over a day trying to figure this out. I will spare you the details.

Would you please: Direct me to comprehensive beginner level documentation on how to install a wifi driver. Preferably official. (Sorry, there is no search field in the [documentation]

(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/20/html/Installation_Guide/s1-redhat-config-kickstart-network.html)

I was pointed to and the topic is not covered.)

Or

Please provide instructions considering I am new to Fedora.

My best bet and problem description:

Wifi is not working. I installed Fedora 20. Ran:

su -c 'yum update'

This in the Netwrok controller in question:

lspci | grep Network

...
04:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter (rev 01)

From Realtek, I downloaded and extracted in the Downloads dir the [driver file]

(http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8188CE).

Following [these]

(http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=257101)

instructions, I ran:

yum install gcc kernel-devel kernel-headers patch make

Still based on the link / instructions above, I tried to:

make

This resulted in errors (did not compile).

And also tried to

./compile

before make, following one of the comments. But there is no compile.

Your help is much appreciated!

And I cannot post links in this forum, so my post looks like a mess.

And the terminal session:
