Description Stephen Morris 2016-06-14 21:45:41 UTC
Description of problem: I have a Dlink DWA-192 802-11ac USB wifi adapter which is dual channel. The kernel seems to be using the ATH9K driver for this adapter but this driver does not appear to support the use of the 5GHz channel, as I cannot get the 5GHz channel ssid to work, nor does the driver appear to think that the adapter even has a 5GHz channel. I have tried to compile my own custom kernel but couldn't get that to provide the access either. What do I need to do to rectify this?


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): All kernel versions up to and including 4.5.6.

I have upgraded to Fedora 24 and I am currently on kernel 4.7.4-200.fc24 and the issue has not changed, I still cannot use the 5GHz channel on my DWA 192 USB WIFI Adapter.
