[Bug 1383184] Re: Atheros Qualcomm Killer N1525 Wireless-AC [168c:003e] not supported

 

I am currently having the same issue with my MYTHLOGIC Dia 1614 Chassis (Clevo P650Sx) machine.
Turns out the option I chose for a wireless card was the 'KILLER Wireless-AC 1525 2*2 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n + BT 4.0 350/867MB Total Bandwidth' as stated on the site.

When typing command 'lspci -v' into terminal I get this for my wired and
wireless connection cards:


03:00.1 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 12)
	Subsystem: CLEVO/KAPOK Computer Device 6556
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 46
	I/O ports at d000 [size=256]
	Memory at f7a14000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
	Memory at f7a10000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: r8169

04:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros Device 003e (rev 20)
	Subsystem: Bigfoot Networks, Inc. Device 1525
	Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 3
	Memory at f7800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=2M]
	Capabilities: <access denied>

It seems I am not the only one having issues with this wireless card.
Qualcomm Atheros Device 003e (rev 20)

I currently have a dual boot setup with Windows 8.1 and Linux Mint 7.1
Cinnamon Rebecca edition which is based off Ubuntu (Debian) anyway so I
guess we are all in the same boat.

Is there a work-around yet?? because at this point I am getting
extremely frustrated since I need to use Linux on the go immediately and
will donate as-well to get this working ASAP.

I am having buyers remorse since my machine is only a week old and that
I should have chose a different option for Wireless cards like the
'Intel Centrino Advanced-AC 7265 2*2 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n + BT 4.0
350/867MB Total Bandwidth'

If someone has a solution please don't hesitate to email me at

  Atheros Qualcomm Killer N1525 Wireless-AC [168c:003e] not supported

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Card detail: Qualcomm Atheros Device [168c:003e] (rev 20)
  Subsystem: Bigfoot Networks, Inc. Device [1a56:1525]

  This is on a fully updated Ubuntu Server 14.04 installation, with the ubuntu-desktop environment installed. This happened in order to get the md raid drivers for raid0 on my system, as the desktop version doesn't support them.
