I can confirm this issue on an AMD desktop with a Qualcomm WCN7850
(hw2.0) Wi-Fi adapter.

My results are:

* Linux 6.14.0-37-generic: 5 GHz works normally
* Linux 6.17.0-29-generic: 5 GHz unavailable
* Linux 6.17.0-35-generic: 5 GHz unavailable
* Linux 7.0.0-31-generic: 5 GHz unavailable
* 2.4 GHz continues to work on the affected kernels

The router's 5 GHz network is confirmed working with other devices. I
also tested a non-DFS 5 GHz channel (channel 36), but the affected
kernels still do not see any 5 GHz networks.

The system is running Linux Mint 22.3 with the Ubuntu-provided linux-
firmware package. The WCN7850 firmware is the Mint/Ubuntu packaged
version.

This also provides a clear kernel A/B comparison: 6.14 works, while 6.17
and 7.0 do not.

P.S. I used AI to help me test this issue, write this report, and find
the appropriate place to report it. Sorry if I've done anything
incorrectly — I'm relatively new to Linux.
