    Re: QCA6164 in Ubuntu 16.04

    You may have a card that needs different firmware
    Code:
    cd /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1
    sudo rm *.bin
    sudo wget https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware/blob/master/ath10k/QCA6164/hw2.1/board.bin
    sudo wget https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware/blob/master/ath10k/QCA6164/hw2.1/firmware-5.bin
    Reboot

    Hmm....

    I tried with this fw and it kind of messed up the wifi and I can'r revert to the half working solution.

    Here is the current state as shown shown in your script:

    Re: QCA6164 in Ubuntu 16.04

    Try loading the firmware-5.bin from antondwal again
    Code:
    cd /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1
    sudo wget https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware/blob/master/ath10k/QCA6164/hw2.1/firmware-5.bin
    The dmesg result shows a -2 error which means not found

    Re: QCA6164 in Ubuntu 16.04

    After messing around with different fw versions, the only solutions that works immediately is the first one you gave on this thread
    i.e
    echo "options ath10k_core skip_otp=Y" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath10k_core.conf
    sudo rm -r/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/
    git clone https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware.git
    sudo cp -r ath10k-firmware/ath10k/ /lib/firmware/
    cd /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6164
    sudo cp -r hw2.1/ /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/
    I will keep monitoring both the performance of the fw and connectivity and updates and releases to the repository.
    Hopefully this somewhat bugy behavior would decrease with time and with more people having this hw.

    Dear Jeremy, thank you for the kind assistance you are offering, me and many others owe our connection to the world to you

    Cheers

    Re: QCA6164 in Ubuntu 16.04

    No problem, I have seen the firmware from kvalo's github work with the QCA6164 cards but I am fairly sure it was before the board-2.bin was added. Before 16.04, the only firmware that worked was from antondwal
