Wireless
Install the Linux firmware files.

At the time of writing, =sys-kernel/linux-firmware-20161205 doesn't seem to work with the Atheros wireless card. One manual step is still required to update to a working firmware. First backup the previous one.

Then download the working one.

This is what you should end up having.

Last step is to enable the ath10k module in the kernel configuration.
