-Subject: [PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix 5G failure when EEPROM is incorrectly
- encoded
-
-Recently, it has been reported that D-Link DWA-582 cards, which use an
-RTL8812AE chip are not able to scan for 5G networks. The problems started
-with kernel 4.2, which is the first version that had commit d10101a60372
-("rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix problem with regulatory information"). With this
-patch, the driver went from setting a default channel plan to using
-the value derived from EEPROM.
-
-Bug reports at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111031 and
-https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279653 are examples of this
-problem.
-
-The problem was solved once I learned that the internal country code was
-resulting in a regulatory set with only 2.4 GHz channels. With the RTL8821AE
-chips available to me, the country code was such that both 2.4 and 5 GHz
-channels are allowed. The fix is to allow both bands even when the EEPROM
-is incorrectly encoded.
