<h1 id="issues">Known issues</h1>

Remove firmware for the Wi-Fi interfaces based on the BCM4301 and BCM4306 chips. ([[!tails_ticket 20887]])

We believe that these interfaces are only available on computers that are too
old to start Tails. Please [[let us know|support#talk]] if your Wi-Fi stopped
working in Tails 6.15.

The *Unsafe Browser* appears in the window list bar with the *Tor Browser* icon. ([[!tails_ticket 20934]])

[[Additional software|persistent_storage/additional_software]] may initially fail to install the first time you start Tails after upgrading. This should be fixed shortly after you connect to Tor.
