Is there any further information on this bug?  I am using an HP Pavilion
15, with RT8723be, on Ubuntu 14.04/ 3.19.  I'm having the same issue as
this bu (and previous #1320070), and am hesitant about following some of
the suggestions as posters tend to report that they do not work,
blacklist the card, etc.  The wifi works for about 30 minutes, must
reboot to regain connection, and speed ridiculously slow.  Thanks to
advise.

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)
