Wifi not working Realtek 8821ae
First let me just say I didn't just come on here and post without reading through hours of "solutions" on multiple forums. I tried to get the answer to this and I want to know if it is more of a lost cause or if I missed something. I just bought a Lenovo Ideapad Y700 15ACZ. In windows 10 everything is great but when I try to use any linux distro, right now on kali linux 2016 rolling, I cannot get wifi to work. At startup it states hardware is disabled. I learned that essentially linux thinks there is an actual switch but in fact there isn't so I tried blacklisting ideapad_laptop. This allows me to connect to the internet but after about 5 minutes I have no internet access BUT it shows still connected to my wireless network. Here are a couple things that might help:
