Public bug reported: The current wireless-regdb package (2021.08.28-0ubuntu2) does not authorize usage of the Wi-Fi 6 GHz band in US/CA, even though the corresponding federal regulatory authorities have approved usage since late 2021. The latest release of wireless-regdb (2022.06.06) enables the Wi-Fi 6 GHz band in US/CA.
Request upgrading the wireless-regdb package to 2022.06.06 to allow Ubuntu desktop users with 6 GHz Wi-Fi hardware to connect to 6 GHz Wi-Fi wireless routers. Most desktop motherboards shipped in the last year have included Intel AX210 Wi-Fi hardware, which supports the 6 GHz band. ** Affects: wireless-regdb (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: upgrade-software-version -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to wireless-regdb in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1979146 Title: Enable 6 GHz operation in US/CA Status in wireless-regdb package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The current wireless-regdb package (2021.08.28-0ubuntu2) does not authorize usage of the Wi-Fi 6 GHz band in US/CA, even though the corresponding federal regulatory authorities have approved usage since late 2021.
