Everything was working fine until I upgraded my Ubuntu version to 16.04 recently.My wifi gets disconnected after every 10-20 mins. Sometimes it gets even worse and it gets disconnected in just 5 mins. I have read this another question in AskUbuntu and tried to implement what the OP accepted as the answer.

16.04 LTS wifi connection issues

Now what I have done till now is I got my wifi details using

sudo lshw -C network

And here is the screenshot of what I got.

Card details

After that I made a config file in the config.d folder in etc. In which I added this command

SUSPEND_MODULES="ar9285"

(It's my wireless interface model number) After that, I ran this command in terminal

echo "options ar9285 fwlps=N" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ar9285.conf

After which I am getting this

options ar9285 fwlps=N

and rebooted

sudo reboot

But it's no use. Wifi gets disconnected constantly. So it would be very much helpful if someone could just help me out.
