@bingo: If you don't mind, you can install the fix from the link in my OP. Obviously, that's not an ideal solution, though, as it should be fixed in the kernel, rather by applying an external patch.
In principle, I'd still be willing to provide any additional informations (or install a 4.6 kernel, but there don't seem to be any mainline 4.6 kernels for Xenial, currently). Anyway, I've used a cable for the last few weeks, but given that there hasn't been any further dev feedback recently, I'm probably going to install the fix from my OP again myself, to get rid of the cable and back to wifi. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1572698 Title: Slow speed and dropped connections with Realtek RTL8192CU-based wifi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1572698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
