I have a netgear X4 R7500 802.1 g/n/ac router with two access points
(one ac and one n)

network-manager can SEE all the wifi AP (both n and ac) BUT can only
connect to the n. When I try to connect to ac, it asks me for password,
then after some time request the password again. At this moment I can't
connect to any AP unless I enter sudo network-manager restart .

Basically I am stuck with 802.11n now.I also bought other WIFI USB
dongles with 802.11ac but none were working correctly.

Bug description:
  =========================================================

  CURRENT STATUS:

  Wily(15.10) could not work with and don't need Adam's dkms package 1.0
  or 1.1

  Wily(15.10) has already fixed the driver part, and the firmware part
  is in progress.

  For now, you guys could use 15.10(purge the ath10k-dkms if you tried
  installing it), and make a copy of
  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-
  firmware.git/plain/ath10k/QCA6174 into /lib/firmware/ath10k/

  15.10 will work in a week by a simple `apt upgrade`

  Distros before 15.10(lower than 4.2 kernel) please keep using the
  dkms(which will be relocated soon)

  Subsystem: Bigfoot Networks, Inc. Device [1a56:1525]

  This is on a fully updated Ubuntu Server 14.04 installation, with the ubuntu-desktop environment installed. This happened in order to get the md raid drivers for raid0 on my system, as the desktop version doesn't support them.
