    Why do you need that kernel? – Pilot6 Feb 16 '17 at 05:32
  • @Pilot6 Because of this; http://askubuntu.com/questions/883610/wifi-speed-is-just-10-kb-on-ubuntu-but-work-fine-on-windows . There Mark suggested another question with, among others, this answer: http://askubuntu.com/a/644453/589808 . In a nutshell, Waris, please don't! You already have a newer and proper kernel –  Feb 16 '17 at 05:53

Grub always loads the latest kernel. You need to manually select the 4.1.1 kernel from advanced options of grub menu.

If you want the 4.1.1 kernel to be default, you will need to remove all newer kernels from your system.

Please note that the 4.1.1 kernel is not supported, and questions about problems with it are off-topic at this site.
