[Bug 1454843] Re: Realtek RTL8723BE wireless card drops connection

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v4.1 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  Realtek RTL8723BE wireless card drops connection

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

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.


  (Bluetooth does not work at all, it doesn't find any devices)
