Sinal wifi muito fraco no meu ubuntu 14.04 LTS executando o dispositivo Qualcomm Atheros [168c: 0042] (rev 30)

Question

O sinal wifi não está cheio, mesmo se eu estiver sentado ao lado do roteador.

$ lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net

O comando acima resulta no seguinte:

02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller [10ec:8168] (rev 15)
    Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device [1025:098a]
    Kernel driver in use: r8169

03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros Device [168c:0042] (rev 30)
    Subsystem: Foxconn International, Inc. Device [105b:e09a]
    Kernel driver in use: ath10k_pci

Por favor ajude. Obrigado.

Tente um backport mais novo primeiro

wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v4.4.2/backports-4.4.2-1.tar.gz
tar -zxvf backports-4.4.2-1.tar.gz
cd backports-20151120
sudo make uninstall

Reinicializar

cd backports-4.4.2-1
make defconfig-ath10k
make
sudo make install

Reinicialize e veja se está melhor, se não estiver, eu gostaria de ver a placa wireless para ver se a (s) antena (s) ainda está (m) conectada (s)

Após uma atualização do kernel, você precisará

cd backports-4.4.2-1
make clean
make defconfig-ath10k
make
sudo make install

Reinicie
