Re: > Could you please provide the full computer model as noted on the sticker > of the computer itself ...
There is no "sticker" on the laptop. The model number I provided (15-AF014AU) is from the purchase documentation, and can be found on HP's online support sites, e.g. http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-15-Notebook-PC-series/7771410/model/8525038/manuals/ There is a 20cm-long strip underneath with about 10 serial numbers of components. Much of the strip is in Chinese. Seems like there are many sub-models in the HP 15 range. HTH Jim On 21 October 2015 at 22:10, Christopher M.

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. I found a work-around described here: https://zach-adams.com/2014/10/wifi-dropping-xubuntu-14-04-rtl8723be-fix/ which seems to be working. Also I can get it going again by disconnecting then reconnecting via the "hidden network" menu option. This sometimes takes two or more attempts. A proposed fix given on one discussion group is to add a /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf file containing "options rtl8723be fwlps=0", then restart. That seems to have stopped the periodic dropping out, but I still need to do the hidden-network connect when coming out of suspend.
