Oh no, this is just an alias called `n` that I execute when the drivers are borked. Every other time that my laptop resumes from hibernate my wifi doesn't work. There is probably a much better solution here, but this one works for me.

i went through the same pains with my hp stream 11

the fwlps=0 option disables the sleep feature altogether which might reduce battery life, but installing tlp gave me ~2 hrs extra per charge

Nice! Thanks for sharing that. I think that AskUbuntu thread is a living testimonial to what I am trying to express through my trolly blog post.

I am honestly proud to be in a community of users who would read that thread and not reinstall Windows. It takes a special breed.

i'm reading your "about" page and thinking... what have i been doing all my life?

i've followed you on twitter. keep writing good content!

Wow thanks so much! Best compliment I've received on HN :)

Cheers!
