You have been subscribed to a public bug: After the upgrade to 17.04, the intel wifi driver frequently fails and requires a reboot to become usable again, I can only use wifi to connect to the internet with this laptop.
This repeats over and over until the next reboot; Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6640] device (wlo1): Activation: starting connection 'ESGFreeWiFi' (7e1a25b5-5b47-4f1a-9557-1e4afcd25255) Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6645] audit: op="connection-activate" uuid="7e1a25b5-5b47-4f1a-9557-1e4afcd25255" name="ESGFreeWiFi" pid=1342 uid=1000 r Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6650] device (wlo1): state change: disconnected -> prepare (reason 'none') [30 40 0] Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6655] manager: NetworkManager state is now CONNECTING Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6670] device (wlo1): set-hw-addr: set-cloned MAC address to 08:D4:0C:EF:9B:4C (permanent) Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477221.6690] device (wlo1): state change: prepare -> config (reason 'none') [40 50 0] Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop kernel: iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: L1 Disabled - LTR Disabled Apr 18 11:00:21 Paul-HP-Laptop kernel: iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: L1 Disabled - LTR Disabled Apr 18 11:00:22 Paul-HP-Laptop kernel: iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: Could not load the [0] uCode section Apr 18 11:00:22 Paul-HP-Laptop kernel: iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: Failed to start INIT ucode: -5 Apr 18 11:00:22 Paul-HP-Laptop kernel: iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: Failed to run INIT ucode: -5 Apr 18 11:00:24 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <error> [1492477224.3337] platform-linux: do-change-link[3]: failure changing link: failure 5 (Input/output error) Apr 18 11:00:24 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477224.3338] device (wlo1): state change: config -> failed (reason 'config-failed') [50 120 4] Apr 18 11:00:24 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477224.3345] manager: NetworkManager state is now DISCONNECTED Apr 18 11:00:24 Paul-HP-Laptop NetworkManager[893]: <info> [1492477224.3350] policy: disabling autoconnect for connection 'ESGFreeWiFi'.
