Title:
cannot change the regulatory domain ath10k, QCA9984 (QNAP QWA-AC2600)
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
linux-image-generic-hwe-20.04
hello,
since the update to Ubuntu 20.04.1 I can no longer change the
regulatory domain of my QCA9984 cards.
This works fine with Ubuntu 16.04.7 / DD-WRT / OpenWrt.
Or if I build the kernel modules myself .. ("Atheros dynamic user
regulatory testing")
The card has "World" in the EEPROM and is sold worldwide.

This means that the card works on various channels with a transmission
power that is far too high
country US: DFS-FCC
(5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A)
30dB = 1W
while in Germany only 25mW are allowed
DE: DFS-ETSI
(5725 - 5875 @ 80), (N/A, 13), (N/A)
So please patch out this eeprom nonsense or activate "Atheros dynamic user
regulatory testing"
- it is also questionable whether the users need individual regdb settings
for each NIC
So that we ubuntu users can operate our Qualcomm WLAN cards with the
correct regdb settings!
