look again, between the SD slot and the bottom of the picture there is
an squared mini pcb with one chip and 6 soldering points, that's the
RTL8188cu. the RTL8201CP betweent he A10 and the rj45 connector is the
PHY of the wired network.

and again, PLEASE stop breaking the threads composing new mails. or
use a decent mail client.
