Christopher in order to bring you as much info as I can, I did the following tests and the result is very strange!!
after installing new kernel 4.7, RJ45 connected I rebooted a firt time (on 4.7) took RJ45 out no wifi I connected RJ45 to install Chromium rebooted a 2nd time, RJ45 out, no wifi I rebooted a 3rd time, RJ45 out, wifi was visible (see the picture below) http://i68.tinypic.com/29479ly.png I did not connect to my wifi box (no wifi password declaration) rebooted no wifi again I shut-off / shut-on power supply wifi is back I've been connected to it (see picture below) http://i64.tinypic.com/fuumat.png I shut-off / shut-on power supply again to check a 2nd time NO wifi I reboot NO wifi, same Finally, as usual, when I do a major change (reinstall, but no improvement this time) or upstream kernel, I've got Wifi just ONCE which means my card is recognized by Ubuntu, but never again. Looks like a sort of flag is marked somewhere which no longer allows wifi -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1565106 Title: Wifi works on W10 but not on Ub 16.04 nor 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1565106/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
