The problem seems to have been solved in 15.10. Not all is totally correct with the WiFi, but this disconnect problem has now gone away.

I installed 14.04 several weeks ago, and noticed the WiFi dropping out. I moved to 14.10, which seemed initially to fix it, but after a few hours it dropped out there too. I moved to 15.04, and the problem persisted. My wifi card is a Realtek RTL8723BE, and the driver for that card may be the source of the problem.
