Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.0 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as Confirmed. Thanks in advance.

sounds like a kernel bug (oh, gosh, lord have mercy on us) Zappy, can you please test the Ubuntu mainline kernel and see if you can reproduce it there? ** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) = linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1315470 Title: wlan0 gets disconnected randomly and can not reconnect To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1315470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1315470] Re: wlan0 gets disconnected randomly and can not reconnect
The problem is caused by the Realtek firmware supplied by 14.04. After following the instructions in several forums, all pointing toward the Realtek firmware, replacing the ones coming with 14.04 kernels and replacing them with the ones found in the FreedomBen/rtl8188ce-linux- driver on GitHub (https://github.com/FreedomBen/rtl8188ce-linux- driver)and rebooting the PC, I no longer have to reboot the PC to get a net connection back. I still see disconnects from the access point as before, but now, the firmware will handle it and reconnect. The problem is still present in the form of random disconnects, but at least now, the problem is somewhat livable. Here is how to install the new firmware: sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-generic linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential dkms git git clone https://github.com/FreedomBen/rtl8188ce-linux-driver cd rtl8188ce-linux-driver make sudo make install sudo cp -r firmware/* /lib/firmware echo options rtl8188ee ips=0 fwlps=0 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8188ee.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1315470 Title: wlan0 gets disconnected randomly and can not reconnect To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1315470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
