Hi Dennis or anyone who can help,

So I tried to fix my disconnecting wifi (ubuntu 16.04 on xps 9360) with

sudo mkdir -p /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/

sudo rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/* 2> /dev/null

sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-
firmware/blob/master/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin?raw=true

sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-
firmware/blob/master/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin?raw=true

sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-
firmware/blob/master/QCA6174/hw3.0/firmware-4.bin_WLAN.RM.2.0-00180-QCARMSWPZ-1?raw=true

After reboot the wifi option was no longer visibe, ls
/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0 showed both board.bin and board-2.bin

so I did
sudo mv /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin 
/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin.bak

now ls /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0 shows board-2.bin and
board.bin.bak but still no wifi option on the after reboot?

Anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do? I would rather have
disconnecting wifi than no wifi at all, also I'm completely new to linux
and have no idea what I am doing so please be gentle!

Ok so also tried 
sudo mv /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin 
/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin.bak 
which seems to have done nothing but eliminate board-2.bin >< 

heeelp pleeease
