You have been subscribed to a public bug: When starting Xubuntu 18.04.1 LTS on a laptop HP 1S-af023ng with kernel 4.15.0-32.35 amd64, wifi via rtl8723be works OK.
Using actual 4.15.0-33.36 amd64 instead, rtl8723be doesn't find any wifi networks and thus there is no connection. Changing the antenna setup in /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be_options.conf doesn't help either; as a workaround an external wifi device (Gigaset USB Adapter 108) works. The expectation is that wifi through rtl8723be will still work under 4.15.0-33.36 as it did previously. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- rtl8723be wifi does not work under linux-modules-extra-4.15.0-33-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788997 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
