This works to reset the wifi temporarily: `sudo systemctl restart network-manager.service`.

The scripts can help fix the wifi resume on suspend issues. However, I have not seen a script that fixes the inability to switch networks on an active wifi connection without it going dead.

Also, on a fresh install, I experienced a fourth problem:

4. Network manager creates a new instance of the network each time it connects to it (e.g., wifi_1; wifi_2; wifi_3. As a result, the user has to input a new password each time.

This bug caused me to roll back to 15.10. Hoping it gets fixed soon.
