Title:
Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4 cannot connect to encrypted 5Ghz networks
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Expired
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.
