Hello guys,
I have Lenovo Ideapad 500S-13ISK. It is bundled with Qualcomm Atheros QCA-9377
(rev 30) 802.11ac wireless card.
Currently I have running Ubuntu 16.10 with all security updates.
Wireless is dropping constantly. I tried different GNU/Linux distributions but
the result is either same or worse. I assume is something related to
NetworkManager and eventually Systemd.
The thing is that I loose signal at some point but the network manager
indicates that I have connection. After toggling Airplane mode it manages to
continue to work properly but I am loosing the list with wireless connections
which are available to be. For some reason it starts to show that I am
connected through cable, instead of wireless.
The only two ways to resolve constant drops in the signal I found is to
toggle Airplane mode or restart NetworkManager. Both results to wrong
indication and disables me from choosing another network.
