I'm using rtl8xxxu.  I don't think rtlwifi supports the 8192eu - it
certainly does not list the device id:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:818b Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

As an extra data point, trying to associate to the 4330 with an Intel
client gives:

[8821752.691490] wlan0: authenticate with 6c:ad:f8:1d:4c:d9
[8821752.693448] wlan0: send auth to 6c:ad:f8:1d:4c:d9 (try 1/3)
[8821752.696230] wlan0: authenticated
[8821752.697493] wlan0: associate with 6c:ad:f8:1d:4c:d9 (try 1/3)
[8821752.700816] wlan0: RX AssocResp from 6c:ad:f8:1d:4c:d9 (capab=0x411 
status=0 aid=1)
[8821752.704407] wlan0: associated
[8821755.814844] wlan0: deauthenticated from 6c:ad:f8:1d:4c:d9 (Reason: 
2=PREV_AUTH_NOT_VALID)

which gets slightly further but ultimately still fails.
