HI to all!


I've been trying to build my own wireless router from a regular PC for a
while now. Everything works fine except the wireless NIC Compex WLE900VX
which is based on Atheros QCA9880 chipset. Although I am able to run it in n
mode I'm getting this output on the command "dmesg | grep ath10". 

[    2.134534] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not fetch firmware file
'ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/firmware-4.bin': -2
[    2.134561] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not fetch firmware file
'ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/firmware-3.bin': -2

The card doesn't want to start at ac mode at all. The OS is ClearOS which is
based on Red Hat products. Here is the output for "ethtool -i wlp2s0"

driver: ath10k_pci
version: 3.10.0-327.36.3.v7.x86_64
firmware-version: 999.999.0.636
bus-info: 0000:02:00.0
supports-statistics: yes
supports-test: no
supports-eeprom-access: no
supports-register-dump: no
supports-priv-flags: no 

Any help is much appreciated. If any extra information needed please let me
know.
Thanks!
