Hi all,
Just want to share, I have a laptop acer one 14 z1402- NX. Y52SI. 005, and installed Ubuntu 17.04. And one that not working are Wireless (Wifi).
After looking around I found the solution for the wireless / wifi in here

With solution from as below, (with connection to internet via other device, I connected through bluetooth teethring):

sudo apt-get install git build-essential
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bu
cd rtl8723bu
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe -v 8723bu

Unfortunately It didn't works for me.
When I boot up Network Manager doesnt show any wireless SSID's however of restart of wireless adapter starts showing all. But it still doesn't connect.
