    I have newly installed ubuntu-14.04 in my laptop but the WiFi is not working on browsing the net.

    I have tried some methods that are presented but none of the made favour to me, I have gone through the /etc/modprobe.d/ to check the rtl8723be.conf but it was not present.

      Do not worry about rtl8723be.conf. It is not needed.
