Grabbed all the patches from the 4 corners of the internet to have it compile on 3.19. Compiles, Installs, shows a list of only the 2.5Ghz ssids, but will not connect to them. I have never been able to get this laptop to connect using the STA driver. This behavior is the same as when I install the STA driver from apt-get. Currently using the b43 driver. It connects, but no 5Ghz. It does connect to 5Ghz under Win Vista.
