Public bug reported:

When I start the PC, my wifi oftnen doesn't work: it is connected but it can't 
talk to the access point.
I found that in dmesg the regulatory domain was set to US.
This is wrong because I live in Italy.
I wonder if this has something to do to the fact that I choose to install 
ubuntu in English.

I found out that I can manually set the regulatory domain using the iw tool:
sudo iw reg set IT
