ifconfig log

I'm having this wireless card disconnecting frequently.
I tried to investigate a bit using dmesg but this lead me nowhere since I only saw the reconnection attempts.

I found some links with users having to revert to the backport driver on Ubuntu 14.04: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2245164

Recently, another user reported the issue on Stack Overflow: http://askubuntu.com/questions/797213/wireless-disconnect-issues-ubuntu-16-04-with-rtl8821ae

I've attached some logs.

Thank you.
