Install android 5 on moto g 2nd gen

Hey guys
I have a moto g 2nd gen mobile (XT1079). It came with android 5 lollipop which was upgraded to android 6 marshmallow by motorola update in february this year. Now I am facing some problems on my phone like it is not connecting to my wifi network (not even detecting it while other networks are detected). When I connect it to my pc using original data cable the phone does get detected but shows me no data.
So I did a factory reset of my phone to go back to android 5 but it still shows me that I am using android 6.
Please tell me how can I install android 5 lollipop on my moto g phone or any suggestions on how to rectify the problems.
Thanks in advance

For USB Connection:

Settings -> About Phone -> Scroll to bottom and continuously tap on Build Number, Developer Options will be enabled after this
Settings -> Developer Options -> Networking -> Select USB Configuration (last option under Networking). Select MTP
If MTP is already selected, select any other option and then again select MTP

Thanks lywyre usb connection started working.

I want to know just that whether this is applicable for other Android phones also or only for MotoG?
