Hi Michal,
thanks for the reply:
I've already loaded the ath10k_core with the rowmode parameters, this
is the modinfo result:

I've loaded adding the line ath10k_core rawmode=1 to the file etc/modules

The problem persists... maybe it's a firmware issue or even a fault of
the wifi card?

Really many thanks

Matteo
