Thanks.
I think I have a card with v8.10 firmware - I'll try that.

I still consider there is something fundamentally wrong
with the approach of NM.
If a WiFi device is working perfectly without NM,
then it should work with NM, IMHO.
It's absurd for NM to complain about the device if it doesn't.
(Recall that NM says "card took too much time scanning.  Get a better one".)
