I would also recommend applying this to at least Precise and Trusty, possibly Saucy since it is still supported. Here is the update that should post to the Debian bug soon: "I would much appreciate this, especially you make the jump to 2013.11.27. The new regdb will also solve issues with 802.11ac; the referenced version appears to be the first with support for 80mhz channels. Without the new regdb (or a patch the kernel that masks the symptoms, below), when you connect to an AP that supports 80mhz channels, you are disconnected with a nearly useless error. Link to the ticket, with details and the symptom-masking patch that will be in future kernels: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70881 It would be great if we could get the new regdb upstream into Debian asap; in the meantime I will try to get an updated version into a ppa for Ubuntu users at least. ;)" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireless-regdb/+bug/1284093/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
