I downloaded and installed 4.3.0-040300-generic from your link. On the very next boot wireless worked without any action on my part.

I then tried removing the driver from my previous post to see if the new kernel worked like the Live CD by not requiring additional drivers. It did not work. I needed to reinstall the driver to get wireless working again. With kernel 4.3.0 still installed and active when booting, I have to restart network manager each boot for wireless to work.

I'm not sure what to make of that. What tag should I apply?
