0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN

Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
This implies that the wireless switch or key combination is set to turn the wireless o. Please look for
and manipulate the wireless switch or key combination. Then try again:
Code:
rfkill list all
Any improvement?
If not, let's try another technique:
Code:
sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop

sudo rfkill unblock all
rfkill list all
If this helps, we'll tweak one le to make it permanent.

Hi Chili555
Now the internet connection works, I used the second method, but it is dropping every 10 seconds or
something like that and it is asking for web-key (password for the wireless modem), How can we
make it permanent?

Please do:
Code:
sudo -i
echo "blacklist ideapad-laptop"
exit
>>
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Let's see if there are any clues in the logs:

Code:
dmesg | grep -e wlan -e rtl

Looks like we need to dig deeper:
Code:
cat /var/log/syslog | grep -e wlan -e etwork | tail -n20
Please run this as you are trying to connect.

First, check the settings in the router. WPA2-AES is preferred; not any WPA and WPA2 mixed mode
and certainly not TKIP. Second, if your router is capable of N speeds, I have better luck with a channel
width of 20 MHz in the 2.4 GHz band instead of automatic 20/40 MHz. I also have better luck with a
xed channel, either 1, 6 or 11, rather than automatic channel selection. After making these changes,
reboot the router.
Next, I recommend that your regulatory domain be set explicitly. Check yours:
Code:
sudo iw reg get
If you get 00, that is a one-size-maybe-ts-all setting. Find yours here: http://en.wikipedia.org
/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 Then set it temporarily:
Code:
sudo iw reg set IS

Of course, substitute your country code if not Iceland. Set it permanently:

Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/default/crda
Use nano or kate or leafpad if you don't have the text editor gedit.
Change the last line to read:
Code:
REGDOMAIN=IS
Proofread carefully, save and close the text editor.

Next, I'd set IPv6 to Ignore in Network Manager: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/...pv6ignore.png This example is for ethernet, but you want wireless.
If these changes do not help, please try:
Code:
sudo modprobe -r rtl8723be

sudo modprobe rtl8723be swenc=1
If it helps, make it permanent:

Code:
sudo -i
echo "options rtl8723be swenc=1"
exit
>>
/etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf
