Adaptador wifi USB que solo lista los 2 primeros canales

Buenas.

Ando con problemillas de wifi en el portátil, y dije bueno pues me compro un cacho "pen usb wifi" y tiro mientras algún alma caritativa arregla el módulo del kernel que me da problemas.

Pero la cosa...rara (es la primera vez que me pasa) es que el adaptador usb wifi no lista las "wifis" mas que en los 2 primeros canales.

Bueno estos son los datos:

Cosa rara que me pasa...

Saludos.
No tengo tiempo para mirar logs, ni ver la distro ni... bueno...
Prueba un live para ver cambios desde alli, puede que si el kernel que usas da problemas, sea algo mas generico, sobre todo si usan ambos un chipset semejante XD.
También puedes usar otro kernel si ese es tu problema, no te vas a morir por usar uno mas viejo o mas actual de la cuenta por un tiempo XD.
Aunque no esta relacionado, he abierto el bug sobre el otro fallo que tengo con la wifi del pórtatil en FreedomSponsors que es el sistema de bounties (recompesas) que esta de moda ahora.

56381: ideapad-laptop driver does not unblock the wireless card form hard block

He puesto 50$ creo que es poco si me lo arreglan, pero bueno, si algun@ se anima a repararlo. [tadoramo]
