On my latest updated Ubuntu 16.04 with my Dell XPS 15 9550, the problem
is just aesthetical (the wrong icon is showing). Maybe we should close
this issue with latest kernel? (and focus just on the wrong icon?)

Title:
  Broadcom 43602 requires module to be reloaded to work

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Running 16.04, and a recent update (last week?) introduced the
  following issue.

  I have a Broadcom wireless card:

  02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM43602 802.11ac
  Wireless LAN SoC (rev 01)

  Upon startup the network will connect fine.  Then after about a minute
  it will drop out.  Possibly related to the following in dmesg:

  [  163.870916] brcmfmac 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
  brcm/brcmfmac43602-pcie.txt failed with error -2

  If I rmmod and re-insert  brcmfmac it works until the next reboot.
