Currently nightly image ships with iw 5.9. This is a suggestion to install iw 5.16 to support 6 GHz iw scan.

Install iw from source:

cd ~
wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/iw.git/snapshot/iw-5.16.tar.gz
tar xvzf iw-5.16.tar.gz
sudo apt-get install libnl-3-dev libnl-genl-3-dev
cd iw-5.16
sudo make install
