Kai-Heng, I was on Hardware stack for awhile but had problems with. Remember many users opt out of HWE even though it's the default. I was running 4.14.2 mainline but `kexec` was broken after 4.12 so I dropped into 4.4.0-101 provided by Ubuntu to make `kexec` work properly. I do have Ubuntu kernels 4.10.0-28, 4.10.0-37...-38 and -40 but I have to analyze the release dates to figure out which real Linux kernel version they are equivalent to. Are you suggesting an HWE version off the 4.10 kernel tree fixes the problem and solution in comment #22 is no longer needed??? -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in HWE Next: New Status in OEM Priority Project: Triaged Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: --- STATUS 2016-03-17: == WARNING: You need at least kernel 4.5.0 for the following new fix to work, else refer to the old method described in post #22 == The support for this card has now been merged to https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware.

I'm also having a similar issues, I have a xps 9360 with the killer 1535 board running on ubuntu 16.10. The weird part with my case is that I'm unable to make new requests while the existing ones keep working fine (like a download or a hangouts/skype call, they never drop). Example, when browsing a website, the main page load, but the images from a CDN not. Its very similar to a DNS problem, but I tried google and open DNS without success. Also, I tested with my other computers and devices and they are all working fine. Another example is with music streaming, that fails only when changing the music file. I already did the fix suggested by #22, and also updated my linux- firmware to 1.163 (http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux- firmware/) Anyone had similar problems?

OK -- I have no clue what my issue could be and am starting to get a bit frustrated with this WiFi chip because it seems like there's nothing I can do about it. I'm using the Ath10k QCA6174 chipset on a Acer Aspire V Nitro laptop. Every other device I have connects at a much faster rate to my Asus AC66U WiFi router, but for the life of me I cannot get my laptop to connect to it at a rate over 1Mb/s, according to iwconfig and the nm-applet tool. I also cannot connect to the 5gz band on the router either, while all my other devices have no issues. When I got the laptop I was able to connect to either 2.4 or 5.0 bands in Win10, but since I've installed Ubuntu it's been hopeless and I've tried just about every solution out there. Granted, when I first got the laptop getting this chip to connect to anything WiFi was pretty much a lost cause, and I know that the driver for it has come a long way, but there are still several issues with it that's really degrading the potential of the hardware. Even on the 2.4ghz band, the only one I'm able to connect to I'm having severe degradation of service and it sometimes won't even connect to the access point and crashes nm-applet. Can someone please explain why it is that it's showing only a 1Mb/s bit rate and why I'm unable to connect to the 5ghz band on the router? $ iwconfig lono wireless extensions. enp8s0no wireless extensions. wlp7s0IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:"dd-wrt" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: E0:3F:49:9E:EF:72 Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:on Link Quality=67/70 Signal level=-43 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:42 Missed beacon:0 Here is dmesg when I'm attempting to connect to the 5ghz band: [ 763.756142] cfg80211: World regulatory domain updated: [ 763.756145] cfg80211: DFS Master region: unset [ 763.756147] cfg80211: (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp), (dfs_cac_time) [ 763.756150] cfg80211: (2402000 KHz - 2472000 KHz @ 4 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (N/A) [ 763.756152] cfg80211: (2457000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 4 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (N/A) [ 763.756154] cfg80211: (2474000 KHz - 2494000 KHz @ 2 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (N/A) [ 763.756156] cfg80211: (517 KHz - 525 KHz @ 8 KHz, 16 KHz AUTO), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (N/A) [ 763.756159] cfg80211: (525 KHz - 533 KHz @ 8 KHz, 16 KHz AUTO), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (0 s) [ 763.756161] cfg80211: (549 KHz - 573 KHz @ 16 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (0 s) [ 763.756163] cfg80211: (5735000 KHz - 5835000 KHz @ 8 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm), (N/A) [ 763.756165] cfg80211: (5724 KHz - 6372 KHz @ 216 KHz), (N/A, 0 mBm), (N/A) [ 789.188940] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp7s0: link is not ready Pardon spreading my frustration but I really don't like Windows and I really don't want to succumb to using it for this reason, if all else fails I may just try to replace the chip with a different one. -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: --- STATUS 2016-03-17: == WARNING: You need at least kernel 4.5.0 for the following new fix to work, else refer to the old method described in post #22 == The support for this card has now been merged to https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware.

Sorry! I forgot to add, that you need the latest mainline kernel (4.5.0) for the updated fix to work. My mistake, I will update the description. If you don't want to update your kernel, you have to use the old method (post #22), but 5GHz wireless will definitely not work with it. The new kernel has an updated version of the ath10k driver, which can utilize both board.bin and board-2.bin from kvalo's repository (now enabling 5GHz), but the ath10k version Ubuntu 15.10 currently uses in it's kernel (4.2.0) requires the single board-file from FireWalkerX.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1520343] Re: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported
Thanks to everyone for research and support so far. As Christophe Chisogne mentioned, a new board-2.bin and a new firmware-4.bin file have been added to kvalo's ath10k-firmware repository and the [168c:003e] (rev 32) is now working correctly using the files from kvalo's master branch. I've also investigated, that ath10k_pci now wants to load both board.bin and board-2.bin, so I expect that they both are required for correct functionality (5GHz maybe? Someone with a new access point could check if it works now). I'll update the status and add some new instructions to the bug description. Also, the bluetooth lag problem exists on ath6k as well (tested), it might be related to the atheros driver/wifi card family as a whole rather than just this card. -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: --- STATUS: Currently there is a fix for this problem in post #22 (originally post #19, but reposted due to command typos!) which seems to have fixed the issue for many.

Hi Niko, I've tested out a few 5GHz networks too and have found out the driver can't handle them. Older Atheros cards using other firmware and board files are connecting to 5Ghz, so I think it has something to do with the board file, since the stock firmware-4.bin works with the special board.bin file. It would be great, if someone familiar with ath10k could look at the source code (the urls in post #19). -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: --- STATUS: Currently there is a fix for this problem in post #22 (originally post #19, but reposted due to command typos!) which seems to have fixed the issue for many.

Dennis, I don't know who you are but you are my hero! :D My Acer Aspire v13 has been wifi-less since, well, a long time.

I've also found out, that my Bluetooth mouse starts lagging behind when downloading something (for example watching a YouTube video). Other Bluetooth devices also seem affected, but the slowdown ends instantly when downloading/uploading over WiFi stops. This has probably something to do with the card's radio, as it manages both Bluetooth and WiFi? Are the channels too close to each other? Maybe there is a way to adjust the bandwidth or frequency if they overlap. -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: --- STATUS: Currently there is a fix for this problem in post #22 (originally post #19, but reposted due to command typos!) which seems to have fixed the issue for many.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1520343] Re: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported
I don't think this bug is a duplicate of bug 1383184, as the suggested fix: "For now, you guys could use 15.10 (purge the ath10k-dkms if you tried installing it), and make a copy of https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git/plain/ath10k/QCA6174 into /lib/firmware/ath10k/" didn't work for me. "dmesg | grep ath" just reports the same old error as in the description. Also, I have already tried the patches from that bug report earlier and made this new one especially because it's fixes didn't work, as you can see in the beginning of the description: "The card has the device id 168c:003e as many other cards, for example the Qualcomm Atheros Killer (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1383184), but it has a newer revision number (32) and the suggested fixes work only partially and the wireless is unusable." That said, I've found out how it's only partially working. The suggested firmware-4.bin file from that report does work, but the board.bin file doesn't. If you replace the board.bin file with the file suggested in this bug report's post #22 the combination starts working. The status of bug 1383184 is marked as "fix released", but having the latest network-manager and linux-firmware on kernel 4.4.0-040400rc5-generic (Ubuntu 15.10) does not fix the issue with the REVISION 32 of the card, which needs the customized board.bin file.

I have to disconnect and reconnect for it works, for few seconds only. All configuration files are set to defaults, only one wireless card. -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

Daniel, do you have any other network connection (wireless over USB, ethernet etc.) active at the same time? And you can safely put the parameters in /etc/resolv.conf, my configuration hasn't changed even after numerous reboots. /Dennis -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

Hey Dennis, /etc/resolv.conf already contained 127.0.1.1 as a name server. My default gateway is 192.168.0.1 but I think changes would be overridden by a reboot. (so I have not tried it yet) When this connection issue occurs, I cannot even access the default gateway(my router) via its IP (the connection is always pending). Only after reconnecting to the network it works instantly. /etc/network/interfaces does not contain any unnecessary parameters. regards, Daniel -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

Hi Daniel, I had similar connection problems, as I had to use an USB WiFi dongle and cable ethernet before I got the Atheros card working. This had changed /etc/resolv.conf, so when removed all parameters from the file and replaced them with the following, the "freezing" issue didn't occur any more: nameserver search You can find the local address with the command: ifconfig lo And the router address by looking for "Default Route" in your network settings. Remember to check /etc/network/interfaces for any unnecessary parameters, mine contains only: auto lo iface lo inet loopback The wireless interface doesn't require any parameters. Otherwise I'm glad that the fix worked for you as well. /Dennis -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

I have the same situation (fresh Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10). @Dennis Marttinen (technowelho) Thank you, your suggestion worked well, but now, I sometimes have connection issues (no data throughput), but nothing special shows up in dmesg.

Hi Tim, I can have a look at the card if you can tell me it's revision number. If the card has one, it can be found after the device id in lspci, for example: Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [168c:003e] (rev 32) <- here This bug report is for the [168c:003e] (rev 32) though, so you might need to make a new one for your version [168c:041]. You should also check out some other Atheros bug reports for the card, but since your PC relatively new, it might be a new issue. /Dennis -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

Hello Dennis, thanks for your work so far. I ve got a new Lenovo u31-70. It has the QCA61x4 in it. lspci -nn shows me Qualcomm Atheros Device [168c:041]. I tried your commands, but it did not work for me. There was no alarm or like that within in the terminal. But after the reboot it did not show any wireless networks to connect. Do you have an idea?

Yeah, sorry there's a little typo in both of the wget commands, I've missed the parameter specifying the output file name. Here are the commands for the fix again, this time with the correct parameters and some other little tweaks. If the /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ directory already exists, remember to backup everything from it in case you want to restore the previous configuration. sudo mkdir -p /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ sudo rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* 2> /dev/null sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin https://github.com/FireWalkerX/ath10k- firmware/blob/7e56cbb94182a2fdab110cf5bfeded8fd1d44d30/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin?raw=true sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin https://github.com/FireWalkerX/ath10k- firmware/blob/7e56cbb94182a2fdab110cf5bfeded8fd1d44d30/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin_WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1?raw=true sudo chmod +x /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* After a reboot your wireless should be working. The status of this bug should probably not be "In Progress" after a working solution has been found, but please correct me if I'm wrong. As I'm not yet familiar with this bug reporting system, could someone advice me further? PS. I'm glad you figured it out Oliver, sorry for the extra hassle. /Dennis -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1520343] Re: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported
I managed to find a solution to this problem and have wireless now fully working! I found a Github link in jeremy31's post from the Ubuntu Forums link by Db-d (post #18, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2304154&p=13398554), which led me to Fabian Olesen's firmware versions forked from kvalo's ath10k- firmware repository. From these different (and new) firmware files I managed to construct a working combination. Here are the commands, which should get the rev 32 card running: If the firmware file directory doesn't exist, create it: sudo mkdir -p /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ If the directory already exists, backup everything important from it: mkdir ~/ath10k_old cp /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* ~/ath10k_old Then delete it's old contents: sudo rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* Now we can start downloading the new board file and the firmware: sudo wget https://github.com/FireWalkerX/ath10k- firmware/blob/7e56cbb94182a2fdab110cf5bfeded8fd1d44d30/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin?raw=true /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin sudo wget https://github.com/FireWalkerX/ath10k- firmware/blob/7e56cbb94182a2fdab110cf5bfeded8fd1d44d30/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin_WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1?raw=true /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin Make the files executable: sudo chmod +x /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* Reboot and your wireless should now be working! If this fix works for you Db-d and Oliver, this thread should probably be marked with "patch released" or something similar and possibly the fix merged upstream? I'm not sure how to do this (or what to do next) so could someone give an advice? /Dennis -- 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/1520343 Title: Qualcomm Atheros wireless card [168c:003e] (rev 32) not supported Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 15.10 (64-bit) alongside Windows 10 on an Acer Aspire VN7-792G-76ZH and discovered, that the Qualcomm wireless card doesn't work.
