I've been facing a wifi problem in Mint 18 (cinnamon). At first, the strength was 48% although the router's in my room. So I read Jeremy31's answer Realtek Wifi Card RTL8723be Not Working Properly which fixed that issue. Although I had to type sudo modprobe -rv rtl8723besudo modprobe -v rtl8723be ant_sel=2every time I logged in.But recently, with the improved connection strength, I can't connect to the internet at all. Any website shows the error -This site cant be reached.http://www.example.coms server DNS address could not be foundTry:_Checking the proxy, firewall and DNS configurationDNS_PROBE_FINISHED_BAD_CONFIGI tried using the ipv4 addresses thinking this might just be a dns issue, with no luck. The internet works when it's wired. Any help is appreciated!
