Ubuntu – no wifi after suspend on 15.04

15.04suspendwireless

My wifi is not working after suspend on 15.04. I can click my way to success on the wifi icon in the menu bar (and the enable wifi option), but I want to use scripts to automate the procedure. Here is my attempt

1) create executable bash script /etc/pm/sleep.d/10_resume_wifi with the contents

#!/bin/sh
  case "$1" in
   hibernate|suspend) ;;
   thaw|resume)
      nmcli r wifi off && nmcli r wifi on ;;
esac

2) create executable file /etc/system.d/system/wifi-resume.service with contents

[Unit]
Description=Restart wifi after waking up
After=suspend.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=-/etc/pm/sleep.d/10_resume_wifi

[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target

and run sudo systemctl enable wifi-resume.service

This is not working, and I get the following lines from dmesg after resuming from suspend

After clicking my way to wifi, I get slightly different output from dmesg

Any suggestions for why the script-based approach is not working? I am new at this, so there are likely several errors. Thanks in advance!

Best Answer

After a little more digging, I found a single script (posted here) that connects my computer to wifi after suspend. In short, I created the executable script /etc/systemd/system/wifi-resume.service with the following contents:

[Unit]
Description=Local system resume actions
After=suspend.target

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/systemctl restart network-manager.service

[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target

and ran the command sudo systemctl enable wifi-resume.service

Many thanks to Sean for solution.
