I can't see Wifi networks. I have realtek wireless card, model: RTL8723BE

Question

I upgraded Ubuntu from 15.04 to 16.04.

I have tried reinstalling rtlwifi-new-dkms

Wifi problems with rtl8723be in Ubuntu 14.04

Also, I disabled Secure Boot in BIOS, which help reactivating the wireless card. But I still can't see the available WiFi networks:

No WiFi networks appearing

For the command sudo lshw -C network I get

Please if someone can help.

@Pilot6 Yes, I did that 2 days ago. Now it turns on but I see no networks as the Image I link. — Mark, Jul 25 '16 at 18:03
@chili555 Hi, maybe you know how can I deal with this now? Disabling the secure boot was part of it. — Mark, Jul 26 '16 at 02:36
Please run the ubuntu forums wireless script (github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info) and paste the results into paste.ubuntu.com then edit your question to include a link to it — Steve Roome, Jul 27 '16 at 19:16
