[Bug 1487524] Re: Broadcom BCM43602 not seeing 5Ghz range

 

its a brand new machine, so haven't tried previous kernel, but the vivid
install image didn't even have the firmware for this particular chipset,
so brcmfmac didn't work out of the box.  will test with mainline kernel
and see what happens.
