I have made edits to this post and Wi-Fi works now, but I still have problems with Bluetooth, and is further explained below at "EDITS:"
A verbose output of lsusb has been posted down below, please tell me if I can get more info out of this. It indicates that Bluetooth is under Chicony Electronics.
Note: I have added another bounty on this question as I still have this issue with Bluetooth. I would like to have my internal Bluetooth working to reduce hassle with USB devices. I recall browsing answers which includes converting and editing specific driver files from Windows so I can use it with Linux and would like to do that where possible, but I lack experience with it and would love an answer that guides me through.
Original Question
I've got everything working on this laptop except for two tiny wee things:
- Bluetooth is not functioning correctly: it does show up in the tray, I can turn it on. When trying searching for a new device, none is found, and my other devices are unable to find my laptop either.
- Wi-Fi does seem to work, but after some time this becomes unstable: I'm unable to connect to any access point anymore until I restart my machine.
I have been searching on several forums and on this website, but I honestly do not have any idea what specific model I have for Bluetooth & Wi-Fi, and am unable to determine what drivers I need for this. I do know that the manufacturer of this Bluetooth device is Realtek.
If you would like to help me, I'd gladly appreciate it.

I have installed the Wi-Fi driver from source from here. I tried to install the Bluetooth driver with these files and make, but they do not work. Does anyone know the solution to Bluetooth?
