Bug Description

This bug is for Xenial kernel 4.4 only.

In commit 66df604dbbb24104ca3c5e0b4198a246c6a7f5d6, DMI ID is used to determine whether we're running on an Edge Gateway or not, and driver toggles LED only when an Edge Gateway is detected. In some recent models the DMI strings are no longer the same, thus WiFi LED stops working.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-failed-xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
