Hello,
Unfortunately I'm unable to connect to the Internet on my computer due
to the nature of this bug (I'm typing this from a tablet right now), and
can't run the command or send the results. My apologies. I hope this bug
will still be passed along to the right people.

Title:
Support for Qualcomm Atheros AR928X WiFi chipset
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hello,
A number of other Ubuntu users and myself have encountered difficulty
when upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS due to our WiFi chipset not being
supported. When I inquired about it on the Ubuntu Forums, I was
informed that this chipset was last known to work on Ubuntu 14.04.3,
and no longer in Ubuntu 14.04.4.
I had bought this network adapter about a year ago from a Linux-
friendly retailer specifically because it said it would work
harmoniously with Ubuntu. But because it is not supported in 16.04, I
am left without Internet access on my desktop, which I require for
work and for pleasure.
Unfortunately, connecting to my router with an Ethernet cord is not an
option, as the distance is too great and awkward. In the meantime, I
will have to revert to Ubuntu 14.04.3 to hopefully get Internet on my
computer. I hope this will be resolved soon. I'd really like to
continue using the latest Ubuntu versions.
