I managed to install rtl8723be drivers from GitHub in new Ubuntu 14.04, but I still have the problem with connection drop. 
Turning Off/On of WifI/Network or add/remove modprobe rtl8723be is not always working.

Lenovo ThinkPad E540, Ubuntu 14.04
metodiew@metodiew:~$ uname -a
Linux metodiew 3.15.0-031500rc1-generic #201404131835 SMP Sun Apr 13 22:36:23 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Is there something else I'm missing or not configured properly?
