[SOLVED] Problems with connection dropping with RTL8723BE

After kernel 3.15 support RTL8723BE ,but also have issue. Need to fix it like wiki.
But after kernel 4.0  RTL8723BE connection dropping issue come back.And add "options rtl8723be fwlps=0" to "/etc/modprobe.d/rtl8723be.conf" didn't work again.
First I think my wirelesscare have issue, so I try it in Windows.But it work find.
When connection dropping , "dmesg -w" and "journalctl -f" have no error message.
Have someone get this issue?And how I can fix it?

Hey.

I had the same WIFI card and had lots of disconnects. I installed the drivers from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new but then suffered weird issues. Eventually I moved to a different card. Hope this helps somewhat. I suggest you try the github repo.
