I recently upgraded my toshiba satellite Pro L640 laptop to ubuntu 16.04. After resuming from suspend the network manager stops working, I am unable to see any wifi routers within range. I have to go to the terminal and issue this command sudo service network-manager restart to get it working. Any ideas why it is happening?

I am working with ubuntu mate 16.04 and the same problem. This is a bug, and you can resume by running
sudo service network-manager restart
Waiting for this bug to be corrected, I have wrote the line
service network-manager restart
(without sudo) in my /etc/rc.local file.
This way the command is launched each time I start my session... To modify the file, we can edit with something like
sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
Hope network-manager will be updated soon.

If you are getting an up/down (Ethernet) icon instead of wireless, no wifi SSIDs appear in the list or connection drops (even while applet shows connected), this is probably the bug, and is still being processed :(
