Public bug reported:

After sleep mode, the Wi-Fi chip is not recognized by the kernel module
and therefore is not available. It is recognized after a reboot or after
hibernating though.

I have tried a lot of possibilities. Someone suggested the following command:
sudo nmcli nm sleep false
But it does nothing.

This has nothing to do with the hardware Wi-Fi switch. I know its
purpose and tried switching on and off.

Also, the output of the command nmcli nm, nmcli c and nmcli d after
coming back from sleep mode is showed below. Notice nmcli d shows no
wlan1 device (which is how my wireless device is identified normally).

Last but not least, the output of dmesg | grep iwl  (after sleep) is

And I think this tells it all.

Ubuntu release 14.04 Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Wi-Fi chip is Intel 3945ABG and module is iwl3945.
