Hello,

I'm a beginner on Linux, and I started this experience with Xubutnu 16.04 -that I really like by the way- but I have some problems with the wifi connection :

- The wifi is very unstable during some periods, and sometimes I can't just use it because it lost the connection every minute...

- The icon on the dashboard does not correspond with the real estate of the wifi. For example, now I get a connection but I have the two white up and down arrows, not the "wireless sign" (I don't really know how to call it). I try to fix it with some tutos but the problem is still here

- Sometimes I'm connected to the wifi but when I open my browser, I can't access to Internet... I tried with Chromium, Firefox, but it didn't change anything.

And sometimes, like now, it worked and I have no idea of why it works now and not all the time... An other thing that may be useful : I got a dual boot with windows 10, and on it the wifi works almost perfectly, so I suppose this is a problem due to the OS.

My computer is an Asus laptop (e202sa) with 4go of Ram if it's necessary for you to know.

I typed some commands that may help you :

       > iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

(it's in french in the commands as you can see, sorry..)

If you have any questions, I may answer, and if you have an idea of a solution, I'll be very grateful ^^

Thanks for reading and I hope that my english is not too bad...
