Is that phone carrier locked? Many careers like to be jackasses on their phones and remove basic features like these.

Then nothing you can do unfortunately. The best option would be to go close to the router.

Not reliably. In the event of a Kernel update you should "git pull" the latest branch beforehand and re-build the dkms module afterwards.

This is one of the downsides to using a third party module outside of your Distro's repository.
