[Bug 1516102] Re: Wifi unstable and unresponsive[RTL8723BE]

 

soumyajyoti, 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 unstable and unresponsive[RTL8723BE]

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The connections are not shown in the Network Manager.After a long wait though the Network manager shows up but the SSID but doesn't connect when chosen.Even if sometimes it connects it is very slow,unstable and eventually disconnects.
  I have installed new drivers @https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new but to no avail.
  I have also changed the mode of the router to b,b/g,g operating at 20 MHz from b/g/n operation at 40Mhz .
  I am attaching the Wireless script details herewith.

  Point to be noted the Network Manager works well with the WIfi Network of my LAVA df800 CDMA Rev b dongle.
  The router  is working fine with 3 other systems(Android/Windows/Linux Mint).The Router is TL-WR720N
