I have two USB - one is inbuilt my laptop which uses driver rtl8723be, and another netgear USB adapter which uses driver rtl8192cu. Both of them are dropping the connection.
I tried #55 and now 8192cu doesn't load at all rendering my USB adapter useless. rtl8723be seems to be better. Connection drops have become lesser, although they are still there. And when it happens I can simply disconnect and reconnect to the wifi. No need to unload and reload the driver module. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240940 Title: Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723be [10ec:b723] Status in HWE Next Project: Fix Released Status in HWE Next trusty series: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Trusty: Fix Released Bug description: This device is appearing in some OEM machines, but driver is not yet available upstream.
