[Bug 1240940] Re: Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723be [10ec:b723]

 

#55 worked for me. Ubuntu 14.04 3.13.0-40-generic. Ran torrents all
night which I haven't been able to do with this laptop's internal wifi
card.

In case others are confused by the mention in that comment about the
kernel headers, I believe you can safely run the following commad to
install them:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic

If they are already installed, it won't hurt anything. Then just follow
with the rest of the commands in #55.
