- Regulatory domain is not set by default after install for wifi + 14e4:4365 [Dell Inspiron 15 3521] Regulatory domain is not set by default after install for wifi -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1280636 Title: 14e4:4365 [Dell Inspiron 15 3521] Regulatory domain is not set by default after install for wifi Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After installation of ubuntu 13.10, /etc/default/crda contains the line REGDOMAIN= i.e. there is no regulatory domain set for the cfg80211 kernel module. iw reg get shows a country 00 when I run iw list, it shows channel 12 and 13 as "(passive scanning, no IBSS)" (which is normal given that the reg domain is not set or the default one) hence, I can't even see a public wifi hotspot on channel 13 using ubuntu 13.10, in a local fast food restaurant with a big yellow M. It's the second one, and they really like to broadcast on channel 13, here.... As the installation process knowns the local time, it should be able to set the regulatory domain, either to EU or FR in my case, and avoid being forced to reboot into Windows (I had the option to), ignoring the root cause of the problem. So, if I quote the text in comment in /etc/default/crda, every default ubuntu installation "may infrige on local legislature" (not in my case here) the bug is already in ubuntu 12.04 LTS. this is irrelevant but I use the bcmwl-kernel-source driver for my Dell 1704 Wireless card based on broadcom BCM4312 chipset on an Inspiron 15 (3521).
