Curiously, my wireless has been working great with the above ath10 deb package, however on recent reboots my wireless seems dead :-/.

I can confirm that it works in Windows 10 and hardware switch is on, yet on Linux boot, it doesn't try and load the modules. When I do it manually, _nothing_ happens. I'm tailing all the logs, checking dmesg.

Usually, when you load the module, the logs show the firmware trying to be loaded. In this case silence. If you hit the hardware switch then I only see something about the bluetooth part of it trying something;

rfkill shows nothing, lshw shows that the device is unclaimed. Might try an earlier kernel (on 3.19.0-26-generic). Very confused.
