There's a strange bug in Lenovo P70 which affects WiFi. Let me describe it.

Ocassionaly the WiFi diconnects and is not able to connect again. When I try to connect it asks me for password and then just shows Saved, but doesn't connect. Also the UI in the WiFi settings behaves stranglely. When I turn off WiFi it stays enabled, etc.

The solution that works sometimes is to go into the Flight mode and back. Sometimes it helps for the first time, sometimes after a few tries. Also restart works, but takes more time.

However, the flight mode affect some other features. It changes the sleep mode timer to less then 1 minute, so I need to adjust it again. Also it disables automatic screen rotation.

Today I've upgraded to P70-A_S136_160912, so we'll see if it helps.
