This has happened twice now, the first time it happened I just reinstalled Ubuntu. The only things that I've been messing with in terms of networking, have been restarting the network-manager service after I resume from hibernate (because it never works right after resume, but restarting the service fixes that), and changing my mac address with ifconfig wlan0 down && ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 11:22:33:44:55 && ifconfig wlan0 up. using tail | dmesg returns a bunch of attempts to connect, saying something like

authenticating ... okay you're connected! now I'm going to just disconnect because I feel like it. (reason=3).

Any ideas? If it helps maybe I'll add a picture of the tail|dmesg output later.

My wireless drivers are as follows:

• Atheros AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter
• Hamachi Network Interface
• Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter
• Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
• VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter

Here is a pastebin of some terminal outputs that could help.

Also, the reddit thread has a few answers, for anyone curious. It's located here.

It is entirely possible that it's just my school wifi blocking out my laptop, and my home wifi sucks. Wifi does work at places other than my home and school, however my phone can connect to both places.

Here is a pastebin of the results of the wireless-info script.
