[Bug 1516102] Re: [HP Notebook - 15-af008ax] Wifi unstable and unresponsive[RTL8723BE]

 

soumyajyoti, could you please not add [RTL8723BE] to the title? This
minimizes the confusion for folks with different hardware that uses the
same driver, but have different root causes.

Despite this, as there is a firmware component to this device, could you
please test for this via http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
and advise to the results?

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Summary changed:

- [HP Notebook - 15-af008ax] Wifi unstable and unresponsive[RTL8723BE]
+ [HP Notebook - 15-af008ax] Wifi unstable and unresponsive

Title:
  [HP Notebook - 15-af008ax] Wifi unstable and unresponsive

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
