When i use Ubuntu in this notebook everything works fine except the
Ralink WIFI. It doesn't work or if it works somehow then it shows the
weak signal strength under which it keep on disconnecting. I am compile
the driver with the help of some forums. I have tried everything in
ubuntu 16.04 none of solution works.

Last option for me is to revert back to old ubuntu release. Please help!
