R8000 5GHz Wifi issue

pierre · November 10, 2016, 1:55pm

Hi

Since about 5 months I'm not able to get the 5GHz Wifi working with the latest trunk (same with OpenWRT). Either a fresh install nor upgrade from Chaos Calmer 15.05.1 works. The 2.4GHz interface is working as expected.

/etc/config/wireless

config wifi-device 'radio0'

I also see a lot of errors within dmesg

So what actually happens? Can you see interfaces (ifconfig command)? Can you see SSID? Can you authenticate? Can you associate? Can you get DHCP?
You didn't describe what doesn't work.

Also check logread after a wifi down; wifi up sequence - this should provide some hostapd log information.

Hi

As mentioned here https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/netgear/r8000 I've set the channels for radio0 to 148 and radio2 to 48

the logread output ist

Hi

There is no SSID just the 2.4GHz. The same config worked under earlier Lede and OpenWRT Trunks.

rmilecki · November 12, 2016, 7:34pm

Info on using channel 148 was a mistake, it was supposed to list 149 as an example. I focused just on your log of radio2 and channel 48 due to that.

If I set Width to 20 or 40 on phy0 and phy2 I can see the SSID and connect with a very bad perfomance (7mbit)

rmilecki · November 12, 2016, 11:32pm

Do you have both radios running? Can you check what channel is in use by each of your radios, please?

iw dev wlan0 info
iw dev wlan2 info

If radio0 didn't start on channel 149 (but e.g. auto switched do 48) it may be interferencing with radio2. Does performance improve if you disable radio0?

[/quote]Yeah, radio0:

Should never be used with lower channel (48 or so)
brcmfmac/LEDE don't allow using higher channel (149+)
So there is a real problem. radio0 is unusable for you. I've to find out if it's related to DFS or something else.

This is probably caused by there not being a country code set. Set a country
code and then you can use all the channels available in your location. Without a
code set, OpenWRT/LEDE defaults to the subset of channels available everywhere
in the world, which is very limited.

I saw a country code error in the log - I believe only World or US works with this radio (only one that work for me), can you try to set those?

rmilecki · November 21, 2016, 9:31am

Can you provide list of countries/regions that original firmware allows to choose from?

rfr · February 19, 2017, 11:12am

I am also affected by this issue. I opened a bug in Flyspray to track it: https://bugs.lede-project.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=535

[quote="rmilecki, post:15, topic:236, full:true"]Can you provide list of countries/regions that original firmware allows to choose from?[/quote]I was asking so many times and got nothing.
Finally I got my own R8000 and extracted few country settings provided in original firmware UI. I added basic support for them in 25200ae7a5e0 ("mac80211: brcmfmac: add early (& hacky) patch for storing country codes")

ptpt52 · May 10, 2017, 8:36am

same problem here. no wifi working for my R8000

anyone can help fix it?

NautilusChan · June 25, 2017, 1:39am

Is there still no solution?

hieixu · June 25, 2017, 9:37am

A fresh install with 17.01.2, then setup wifi, all works.
