I'm not sure as to what is causing it. I found this thread which could be the answer but I'm not sure how to follow it. Is anybody able to assist?

WiFi keeps dropping out but stills says I'm connected

Not sure which commands I should input and I'm afraid of breaking my computer again.

Yes , i had the same issue a when i installed Ubuntu 14.04.

Probably it was due to network manager.

  1. I just noted down my network configuration by ip a s command and
  2. Then purged the network manager.
  3. Lastly i configured my Linux box to use static ip configuration.

Here is the guideline i followed:

  • I am assuming that the etho bit is the auto lo iface lo inet loopback etc etc however when I did sudo update-r.d networking enable it came back with update-rc.d: warning: start runlevel arguments (none) do not match networking Default-Start values (S) update-rc.d: warning: stop runlevel arguments (none) do not match networking Default-Stop values (0 6) System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/networking do not exist. – Skeleton Jan 07 '16 at 01:41

  • It didn't work. Not sure what I did wrong. Here's a screenshot of everything I did. The top bit is part of the purge command. https://imgur.com/F2uRHv3 – Skeleton Jan 08 '16 at 03:57
