Sorry, corporate wifi. Have no idea what the route/APs are and certainly
do not have access to firmware version etc.

Title:
  rtl8821ae has no connectivity in 5GHz networks

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Seems to be the same as
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1528005/

  Lenovo Ideapad 300 (80Q7008EAU - 15.6" i5 8Gb 1TB) on fresh install of
  amd64 Wily/15.10. Wifi worked ok under Windows 10 home that came with
  it.

  rtl8821ae driver loaded. Connected to AP fine. Got IP address, GW, DNS
  etc correctly, but no traffic.

  Workaround worked fine:
  git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
  cd rtlwifi_new
  sudo make install
  sudo restart now

  FWIW, proper 802.11ac speeds copying large files.

  Same problem after apt-get upgrade installed linux-
  image-4.2.0-25-generic. make installed the above driver again and all
  good.
