It's difficult to answer without knowing anything about your hardware,
your WLAN infrastructure and your WLAN setup on Ubuntu/xenial.

It might be helpful if you attach your linux-config and dmesg output.

$ cp -v /boot/config-$(uname -r) /tmp
$ dmesg > /tmp/dmesg.txt

Attach those two files from /tmp directory and people can look at this.
