Hi all, I am very new to Linux and facing similar issue with RTL8723BE on HP- 15AF006AX.
At first, the system couldn't recognize any Wifi network. Tried the rtlwifi_new. Now, the wifi does connect, but only withing a range of 1M from router's antenna. The connection drops are very frequent. Next i have tried to add 'options rtl8723be fwlps=0 swlps=0' to the "/etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf". No luck. The connection keeps dropping. I have Ignored the IPv6 settings and checked for the Power Management to be 'Off'. Are we expecting this bug to be fixed in near future? Else I might have move back to Windows. -- 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: 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.
