Can confirm same here, clean 16.04 MATE install. Latest intel iwlwifi driver for c6205 wifi card.

Network list not refreshing after resume from suspend, but reconnects to WiFi Network previously connected. (laptop not moved to new location - hence same network present, but not listed.)

Disabling and re-enabling WiFi does nothing.

Disabling and re-enabling WiFi H/W switch does nothing.

Disabling and re-enabling Networking does nothing.

Tests include going back - clean install - to 14.04.2 MATE and fault non-existent. So I can eliminate H/W issues.

Work around for me that works:

I have used script, and automated it, as mentioned here and confirms it works for me.

On my research this problem is very widespread and was mentioned in latest Linux Action Show:
