[Bug 1320070] Re: Realtek Wifi card RTL8723BE drops connection with MSI enabled

 

It seems that workaround #39 does nothing for me.
But I(ve been following the instruction on this thread 

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2239932

And my connection has improved, it's still not ok, I have deconnections
all the time, but I'm not stuck with an unusable wifi. before I was
unable to reconnect and had to reboot. That's not the case anymore.

So my understanding is now that, there is a driver problem, but that's
not all, it seems that the card doesn't want to stay on an SSID
.....it's an anarchist !!!!!

hope that helps
