Hi, first used the procedure described on post #29 (before I found this bug thread)
Then I ugraded to 3.15.0-031500-generic, and I saw in the update that the firmware for rtl8723be was in.

Today, I have the firmware file in lib/firmware/rtlwifi   but nothing
pops up in dmesg when i look for grep rtl8723befw.bin, so i'm guessing
my system isn't loading it.

My wifi works but drops all the time ....

I'm lost :)
