How to make 802.11ad wireless work using wil6210 driver

I have a laptop with 802.11ad hardware (Wilocity wil6200 802.11ad wireless network adapter). I have also installed Ubuntu 16.0.4 LTS version on it. It has driver wil6210 designed to manage the hardware. I think the firmware loads successfully each time. I have a snapshot of the syslog here:
But in the network connections section 802.11ad interface (Wilocity) is inactive and it does not connect to the router with SSID TP-LINK_8FEC_60G.
Here is another snapshot of the situation:
I ran dmesg before and after trying to connect to router. The difference is in the following image:
wlp2s0 is the interface for Wilocity wil6200.
What can I do to fix the problem?
driver=wil6210
driverversion=4.13.0-37-generic
firmware=4.1.0.55
Update:
The result of dmesg | grep wlp2s0 comes in this figure:
The result of sudo dpkg -s wpasupplicant is in the following image:
drivers wireless atheros firmware

How and why do you have two network adapters in your laptop and why do you want to connect both? Do you love trouble? Welcome to Ask Ubuntu.

The two adaptors work in different frequencies. Wilocity works in 60GHz and the other one works in 2.4GHz. The Qualcomm chipsets make this possible. I want this to work for a research project. This hybrid system is not that uncommon for communication as each band has its own pros and cons. And thanks!

Oh! You do love trouble! May we also see:dmesg | grep wlp2s0Let's see if it tries to connect and what's going wrong.

Also:sudo dpkg -s wpa_supplicant
