Hi, I'm experiencing the same issue as @avirup-das. I have the RTL8723BE on my HP Stream 11. I verified the wifi works great in Windows (8) so the internal card is okay.
Using Xubuntu-amd64 15.10 with new installed kernel 4.3.0 (same results as in kernel 4.2.0) Wifi does work and the laptop connects to the network, but my wireless controller reports a very weak signal from my laptop. Ubuntu also reports a weak signal with connection to the AP. I can only connect to wifi when sitting next to the AP. (All my other devices can connect fine from a certain distance from the AP.) Signal is stable (very near the AP) when sitting in the same place and there's no interference. Bandwidth/speed is between 1kb/sec and 100kb/sec max. # iwlist wlo1 txpower returns Tx-Power at 20dBm (100mW), so that seems okay. I've tried; - Using newest lwfinger git driver: Getting the above results - With and without the modprobe config options (tried on and off 'ips', 'msi', 'fwlps' and 'swlps'): "msi:Y" results in no connection, msi:N does give above results. No difference setting other options. - Use ndiswrapper to use Windows drivers for this card: This doesn't change anything to the above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240940 Title: Need support for Realtek Wifi card rtl8723be [10ec:b723] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1240940/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
