Wifi Drops without registering it is gone.

Post by Da_Spooky »

Hello all and thank you in advance for any help you may give me. My wireless has been randomly dropping out but not registering it has been dropped out. I then have to reboot and use it for 20-90 minutes before it drops again. I am running Mint 17.2 64-bit Cinnamon, all my applications and kernel are up to date.
Thanks! :D

I have seen on some other topics to post the results of lsmod, so here you are:

Please generate an overview of your system like this:
- Launch a terminal window (this is how to launch a terminal window);
- make the terminal window full screen, to avoid chopped lines;
- copy/paste this command into the terminal:

Code: Select all

inxi -Fxz
(if you type: the letter F is a capital letter)

Press Enter.

Copy/paste the output in your next message.

The RTL8723BE chipset. Fix its driver like this:

(item 3, left column)

If that's not sufficient, replace the entire driver:
