Bug Description
rtl8821ae does not work out-of the box on Ubuntu 16.04. It does not detect any WIFi networks and laptop starts with Wifi disabled in NetworkManager. To make rtl8821ae work I have to do the following:
echo "blacklist ideapad_laptop" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.
After that rtl8821ae loses connection occasionally. None of those helped:
echo rtl8812ae >> /etc/modules
echo "options rtl8821ae ips=0 fwlps=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.
sudo modprobe -r rtl8821ae && sudo modprobe rtl8821ae
options rtl8821ae ips=0 swenc=1 debug=5 msi=0
sudo iw dev wlp2s0 set power_save off
