[Bug 1430509] Re: Realtek RTL8723AE can't connect and it's slow

 

Hi. I have installed the lastest Kernel (4 RC3) and the connection seems to work fine, it always connects, but the speed is really slow! 
I've tried to download the Ubuntu ISO from the website and the OpenOffice package and the network has never gone over 90 kb/s. With a USB network adapter i reach 600 kb/s and on Windows i go up to 800 kb/s

Bug description:
  My wireless card "Realtek RTL8723AE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter" doesn't work fine on 15.04. It works pretty fine on 14.10 and previous versions, but it's unstable on 15.04 and the most of times it can't connect to my WiFi network. Sometimes I can solve deleting the network from "Edit connections", but when i can connect the connection is unstable and really slow (40-50 kb/s in download).
  The same wifi card with the same wifi networks worked fine until I've updated to Ubuntu 15.04 so i can suppose that it's a Vivid's bug
