PCE-AC68 Dual-Band Wireless-AC1900 PCI-E Adapter, Ubuntu 15.10 fully updated.
Bought this sometime last year, installed and using some online resources managed to activate full 802.11ac speed (so not remember what the steps were, but it was not complicated).
I'm connecting to a router that has both 5GHz and 2.4GHz.
Worked well for a few months but since a while back 5GHz is not shown in the list, nor can I add it, even by manually specifying the SSID. Phone and Tablet continue to use 5GHz as before, so it's still there.
Tried all the reboots and so on and forth I could think of.
Ran the wireless.txt script, and in that I can see 5GHz channels, and some more info, though I can't really interpret the results.
Any idea what this could be / please help by looking at my config. :)

I had the same problem as you, and I just found the problem. The 5Ghz network was setted to choose automatically the channel, one day it changed to a channel with an high number and my card wasn't able to find the network anymore.
So just check in your router if the network has an high number channel and change it back to a lower one (now I'm with channel 40 and it's working fine) and check if you can now find again the network.
I've also open a bug report in the bcmwl package page, if this is the problem click on the "This bug affect you" button in this page
I hope I have helped you.
