[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1454843] Re: Realtek RTL8723BE wireless card drops connection
Tested on HP 15-AF006AX with the latest final build of Ubuntu 15.10, Kernel v4.2 The connection is stable, no disconnection for long hours. However, the signal strength issue persists. I cant get my wifi work beyond 1.5m radius of the the router. The wifi does work fine on Windows system so, we can exclude the hardware issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1454843 Title: Realtek RTL8723BE wireless card drops connection Status in HWE Next: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I am using Lenovo M30-70. I tried many workarounds from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1320070 but no change, the connection is lost after a while. Finally I tried the rtlwifi_new driver from https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83641#c1. I first thought it works stable but after a while it also loses the connection (see my comment there). After reconnect it works for a while again. I uninstalled the rtlwifi_new driver for this bug report.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1240940] Re: Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723be [10ec:b723]
Hi all, I am very new to Linux and facing similar issue with RTL8723BE on HP- 15AF006AX. At first, the system couldn't recognize any Wifi network. Tried the rtlwifi_new. Now, the wifi does connect, but only withing a range of 1M from router's antenna. The connection drops are very frequent. Next i have tried to add 'options rtl8723be fwlps=0 swlps=0' to the "/etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf". No luck. The connection keeps dropping. I have Ignored the IPv6 settings and checked for the Power Management to be 'Off'. Are we expecting this bug to be fixed in near future? Else I might have move back to Windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240940 Title: Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723be [10ec:b723] Status in HWE Next: Fix Released Status in HWE Next trusty series: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Trusty: Fix Released Bug description: This device is appearing in some OEM machines, but driver is not yet available upstream.
