WiFi works after loggin it, but it should be working before also, if not, what's the point in having an icon there :) I get the following message: Failed to add/activate connection. - (1) Insufficient privileges. - see image. This worked fine in 14.04. I have noticed this problem in both my desktop (Broadcom WiFi) and Laptop (Intel WiFi) - So it has nothing to be with the chip. Feel free to ask for more info.
