[Bug 1528005] Re: rtl8821ae has no connectivity in 5GHz networks

 

Mikaela Suomalainen, to advise, testing the latest upstream driver
version in itself would never make any report invalid.

Despite this, in order to upstream this issue, it would need to be tested on the latest upstream version. Hence, if a system break is a concern, then one would want to already have:
1) Installed Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there.
2) Backup, or clone the primary install.

In order to test upstream one may perform via a terminal:
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
cd rtlwifi_new
sudo make install

restart, and test. Once finished, one may uninstall this via a terminal:
cd rtlwifi_new
sudo make uninstall

** Description changed:

- I get IP address and everything, but no connectivity. I cannot ping even
- the router.
+ Attempting to connect to a ASUS Wireless Router RT-AC51U (firmware
+ 3.0.0.4.378_9135-gac2b2c2on) on 5GHz I get an IP address and everything,
+ but no connectivity. I cannot ping the router.
