Bug Description
What is expected to happen is that when I connect my Lenovo Ideapad 300 to my ASUS RT-AC68U (firmware 3.0.0.4.380.1842) 802.11ac on 5GHz, it connects fine, just like it does with Windows 10 home.
What happens instead is that I obtain an IP address, gateway, DNS etc. but no traffic occurs.
WORKAROUND:
git clone https:/
cd rtlwifi_new
sudo make install
sudo restart now
