Bjoern, I've attached the logs here. The funny thing is, after I set the country to what the router says, it did connect, but ifconfig still says it's 802.11a. However, the speed greatly improved: it now shows 90+ Mbps instead of the 10 I saw before. So probably, I don't have the problem I've originally reported. Still, ac doesn't seem to be on, tho.
