Bug Description
When I start the PC, my wifi oftnen doesn't work: it is connected but it can't talk to the access point. I found that in dmesg the regulatory domain was set to US. This is wrong because I live in Italy. I wonder if this has something to do to the fact that I choose to install ubuntu in English.
WORKAROUND: I can manually set the regulatory domain using the iw tool:
sudo iw reg set IT
