Driver drops connection, because code for power saving mode can't wake
up the device on lenovo B5400. So, couple months ago, I partially
commented out code that is responsible for putting WiFi card to sleep.

It works almost flawlessly on kernel 3.13-24-generic. It also worked on
kernel 3.11. It is not perfect, but it is pretty usable. Just type:
make, sudo make install, sudo modprobe rtl8723be
