Title:
Card with chipset BCM4360 [14e4:43a0] (rev 03) doesn't see 5Ghz
networks with high channel number.
Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The card Broadcom Corporation BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network
Adapter [14e4:43a0] (rev 03) doesn't see 5Ghz networks with an high
channel number, if you change the channel back to a lower one the
network will be found again.
In my case with channel 104 the network wasn't seen by the card, with
channel 40 it works fine
