[Bug 1286552] Re: No wifi after suspend

 

I seem to be in a similar position to Nicolas. Before a suspend, with
wifi working, WWAN is disabled according to 'nmcli nm'. Then, after
suspending, with wifi not working, WWAN is enabled.

However, sometimes wifi doesn't work even after restarting my Dell
laptop and WWAN is disabled after restarting regardless of whether or
not wifi is working. So the WWAN enabled/disabled may be a red herring.

I've also noticed link=yes in the 'configuration' entry for the wireless
adapter section of 'sudo lshw -C network' when wifi is working but
link=no when wifi does not work.  But maybe the link attribute is just
another way of indicating whether it's working or not (i.e., an effect
rather than a cause). I don't know what the 'link' value means.

Wifi used to reconnect for me without any problems on my Dell in 12.04
LTS. It's only since upgrading to 14.04 I've had these problems
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2218612). Interestingly, wifi
fails to reconnect after suspending if I'm running off the 14.04 Live CD
too. Presumably wifi would reconnect successfully after suspending if I
was running  off a 12.04 Live CD but I haven't tried that.  Maybe if we
ran these or other commands before and after suspending on 12.04 and
14.04 Live CDs we could isolate what's changed.

Bug description:
  After suspending ubuntu the wifi doesn't work. The solution given here
  (http://askubuntu.com/questions/368671/ubuntu-13-10-wifi-not-re-
  connecting-after-suspend) worked for me but when I have updated my
  Ubuntu now it won't work. I have tried to test mainline kernel but it
  won't to boot with it.

  To reproduce the bug : just suspend the computer and then power it.
  There's no wifi network until you restart the computer.
