#18362: Archer C7 v2, 5GHz wifi not exist at first boot
----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
Reporter: olmari | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: high | Milestone: Chaos Calmer (trunk)
Component: base system | Version: Trunk
Keywords: wifi, wireless, first boot |
----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
Using selfcompiled trunk [43283], default profile for TP-Link Archer C7
v2, when device initially boots or settings are reset to defaults, there
is only the 2.4GHz ath9k driven qca955x radio existing "Generic MAC80211
802.11bgn (radio0)", no 5GHz 11ac radio exist.
/etc/config/wireless looks like:
{{{
config wifi-device radio0
option type mac80211
option channel 11
option hwmode 11g
option path 'platform/qca955x_wmac'
option htmode HT20
# REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
option disabled 1
config wifi-iface
option device radio0
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid OpenWrt
option encryption none
}}}
Doing: "rm /etc/config/wireless && wifi detect > /etc/config/wireless"
detects both radios and stuff works then, new /etc/config/wireless looks
like:
{{{
config wifi-device radio0
option type mac80211
option channel 36
option hwmode 11a
option path 'pci0000:01/0000:01:00.0'
option htmode VHT80
# REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
option disabled 1
config wifi-iface
option device radio0
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid OpenWrt
option encryption none
config wifi-device radio1
option type mac80211
option channel 11
option hwmode 11g
option path 'platform/qca955x_wmac'
option htmode HT20
# REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
option disabled 1
config wifi-iface
option device radio1
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid OpenWrt
option encryption none
}}}
So something on first boot doesn't quite properly configure the Archer C7
wifi on first boot.
