I have this bug as well in a clean MATE 16.04 install.

 x220, Intel 6205 wireless . Using the firmware iwlwifi 18.168.6.1

Various things like #12 sudo iwlist wlan0 scan - does not work for me.

Also disabling Wireless and/or networking via Network Manager - and re-enabling does nothing.

Nor does using hardware on/off/on for wifi make a difference.

Rebooting fixes it.

I have tried this fix

[which is a seperate fix for the Intel Wireless hardware flaky WiFi connection - not related I feel]

Subsequently I have gone back to 14.04 MATE and works perfectly!

Is this a systemd issue perhaps?
