Summary of my particular setup
-------------------------
I am using a Lenovo Y50 Laptop which includes the following network cards/adaptors:

I have read reviews that these adapters are not very good - i.e. they
are a bit old. They also cannot find 5G wifi networks, only 2G ones.
The laptop came with Windows 8.1 64 but I installed Ubuntu 14.04 64 Bit
alongside Windows, even though I only boot into my Ubuntu partition now.
Also, I have installed both WICD Network Manager AND Ubuntu's Network
Manager on my system, but for the purposes of this bug I am only using
Ubuntu's Network Manager i.e. I am not opening WICD. I am including this
information in case even installing WICD may be causing a conflict.
-------------------------
The problem
-------------------------
At work I use Ethernet, so when I plug the cable in in the morning my computer connects straight away to the internet through Network Manager!
When I come home, I use wifi and expect it to connect straight away but
- it keeps saying its authenticating and then does not connect. It can
- keep trying for up to an hour and then suddenly it will connect like
- magic!
+ it keeps saying its authenticating and then does not connect. I can see
+ all the 2G wifi networks, but network manager just cannot connect to
+ them straight away. Network manager will keep trying for up to an hour
+ and then suddenly it will connect like magic!
-------------------------
What solutions I tried that did not work
-------------------------
* Using software updater to update my system fully
* Restarting my laptop
* Restarting the router
* Connecting to the wifi with my phone (works fine!) whilst I am struggling to connect with my laptop
* Disabling network manager and re-enabling it
* Disabling wifi then re-enabling it
* Disabling wifi and networking and then re-enabling it
* In Terminal: `sudo service network-manager restart`
-------------------------
What I am going to try
-------------------------
* Move fully to WICD (which I have done in the past!) OR delete WICD totally and only keep network manager
* Check to see if my particular card has any known issues with Ubuntu and try to solve those
* I'm open to other suggestions
