Not only that but if I try to look for the AP, it does not show the one I was connected to (but others appear). Or in rare cases for the error, it does not show any AP. I have read other links suggesting where the problem could be like: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2117341/ https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux- stable.git/commit/?
