Title:
  10ec:8821 rtl8821ae has no connectivity with 5GHz/802.11ac network

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  What is expected to happen is that when I connect my Lenovo Ideapad
  300 to my ASUS RT-AC68U (firmware 3.0.0.4.380.1842) 802.11ac on 5GHz,
  it connects fine, just like it does with Windows 10 home.

  What happens instead is that I obtain an IP address, gateway, DNS etc.
  but no traffic occurs.

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