I have continuous problems of network dropping connections on wifi with ubuntu 16.04, I have an ASUS R510J, this is my network card:
##### lspci #############################
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [10ec:8821]
 Subsystem: AzureWave RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter [1a3b:2161]
 Kernel driver in use: rtl8821ae
04:00.1 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller [10ec:8168] (rev 12)
 Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller [1043:200f]
 Kernel driver in use: r8169
sudo service network-manager restart doesnt's help, as I never regain internet connection after it drops, and I have to restart the PC. On Ethernet cable I have no problem.
What do you think is the issue? drivers?
thank you

Install this driver from a PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi
sudo apt update
sudo apt install rtlwifi-new-dkms
It is a better driver that should support your adapter.

 unfournately, I tried this solution for a few weeks and the problem persists. I assume it is just a matter of drivers

I had the same issue,My network card is RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter.I did the following steps to get it working:
sudo apt-get install git build-essential
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
cd rtlwifi_new
make
sudo make install
Your WiFi will now work fine but you will need to re-install it after each kernel upgrade.
Or this code might work:
sudo dkms add ./rtlwifi_new
