Roman, thanks for testing. The next thing that would be helpful is the WAP manufacturer, model, and firmware version. It is understood that this is primarily reproducible with a university WAP. However, given the circumstances, it would be proper if you asked them for this information, and for them to provide it to you so you may get your device working on campus.
Hence, could you please advise to this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1525228 Title: Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4 cannot connect to encrypted 5Ghz networks Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The device works fine with Ubuntu 15.10 mainline kernel 4.2.0 and the firmware provided in linux-firmware on 2,4 Ghz wifi networks or unencrypted 5GHz networks. But when i connect to a encrypted 5Ghz network. The firmware provide in linux-firmware (WLAN.RM.1.1-00141) crashed like i think is described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1516384 So i installed the latest firmware release SW_RM.1.1.1-00157-QCARMSWPZ-1 from ath10k-firmware (https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/) In this version the firmware doesn't crash but goes into a loop. Like you see in dmesg, the device associates with the AP, but from an unknown reason it cannot connect. At the moment i cannot provide you any details about the AP im testing with, because im using my universities network, but if you really need them i can test the device with an known AP in a week or so. I reported the bug to the ath10k mailing list, but i think the topic got lost: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2015-November/006478.html PS: I tested the problem with all mainline and upstream kernels(4.2.6, 4.3.0,4.4rc4) without any difference. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: linux-image-4.2.0-21-generic 4.2.0-21.25 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-21.25-generic 4.2.6 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-21-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: roman 2043 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: roman 2043 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Fri Dec 11 14:01:58 2015 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=38f2bb72-0ff3-498e-ab17-249df8b33aef InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-10-23 (49 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) MachineType: Acer Aspire VN7-571G ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-21-generic.efi.signed root=UUID=da03328e-3129-4dfc-98d7-b8b06fa3d5f1 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-4.2.0-21-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-4.2.0-21-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.149.3 SourcePackage: linux UdevLog: Error: [Errno 2] Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden: '/var/log/udev' UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 01/08/2015 dmi.bios.vendor: Insyde Corp. dmi.bios.version: V1.14 dmi.board.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.board.name: Aspire VN7-571G dmi.board.vendor: Acer dmi.board.version: V1.14 dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Acer dmi.chassis.version: V1.14 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnInsydeCorp.:bvrV1.14:bd01/08/2015:svnAcer:pnAspireVN7-571G:pvrV1.14:rvnAcer:rnAspireVN7-571G:rvrV1.14:cvnAcer:ct10:cvrV1.14: dmi.product.name: Aspire VN7-571G dmi.product.version: V1.14 dmi.sys.vendor: Acer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1525228/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
