["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Aakash Dabas, suspend is considered a separate issue from the scope of this report. Feel free to file a new report about it via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug linux

Regarding the scope of this report, could you please test the latest
upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page
from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release
names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily
folder)? Install instructions are available at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the latest kernel did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this issue is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Where X, Y, and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version.

If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of
kernel-bug-exists-upstream.

Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this
report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Wifi signals are unstable and drops after sometime in RTL8723BE

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm using ubuntu 14.04 on my new laptop from HP( HP pavillion
  15-ab032tx). It has got a network card from realtek which seems to be
  really buggy as of now. When I'm connected to a network either the
  wifi signals are damn low or they just vanish. And at the same time my
  other devices captures full wifi signals. Moreover the wifi just ain't
  works after suspend. Also I've tried updating the drivers. The current
  version of network driver is : rtl8723be.  My kernel version is
  :3.13.0-65-generic. But nothing changes. Please help me out. Also I'm
  not so experienced with ubuntu so kindly tell me everything in details
  so that I can follow the commands. Thanks in advance.
