Hi
I'm having issues with connecting to my router with WiFi.
After some days working fine suddenly clients become unable to connect.
Does not matter which client OS is running (Win,Android,iOS,OSX,Linux).
This affects both, 2,4GHz and 5GHz bands. Sometimes both, sometimes just
one.
My hardware/software is
{{{

Firmware Version OpenWrt Chaos Calmer 15.05 / LuCI
(git-15.248.30277-3836b45)

Running mwlwifi driver.

Restarting hostapd doesn't help, simple /etc/init.d/network restart
doesn't help too...
After reboot it works for a while as mentioned before.
The temporary solution found so far is a reboot.
Please reply if I can provide any other data/info needed.
