It is really annoying to use a usb wireless that cannot hold internet conection for 5 minutes and then having to plug and unplug it again. After 15 years using GNU/Linux and now thinking in going back to Windows because of this unsolved issue I have also tried to solve this issue with backports, Kvalo, Compiling a new kernel, copying firmware to /lib/firmware/ath10k folders and so on and nothing has worked. When I compiled the driver, it claimed QCA9377, and I copied this folder to /lib/firmware/ath10k. The firmware worked, but the board.bin did not work and until now I did not solve the issue :( lspci 02:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros Device 0042 (rev 30) lshw *-network UNCLAIMED description: Network controller product: Qualcomm Atheros vendor: Qualcomm Atheros physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:02:00.0 version: 30 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: bus_master cap_list configuration: latency=0 resources: memory:a1000000-a11fffff On 01/13/2016 04:09 PM, John Detter wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I recently bought a laptop (Samsung) that has a Qualcomm Atheros > QCA6174 card.
