Also encountered very similar problem.

I'm using Acer Aspire V7 laptop with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. An update popped up, but I wasn't quite aware of what the update was about.

Restarted my computer, and then both wifi and ethernet connections stopped working. The situation matches with the bug description. "Enable Networking" checked, but no "Enable Wi-Fi".

Both wireless and ethernet cards were detected, but no kernel modules seemed to be in use.

Also, screen brightness could not be changed. The Logitech wireless mouse and the laptop touch screen stopped working.

Same as what's mentioned, no such problems if after reverting to 4.4.0-75-generic.
