AR750S repeating 5GHz issue

@tauceti Could you please upgrade the latest testing firmware? Here is the link to download. Please untick “keep settings” when upgrading, and don’t using luci instead of our webui to connect your upstream AP. Please let me know if this version fixed the issue.

Hi Kyson-lok,
thanks for the reply. It seems to work now. Perhaps it is because of the autochannel feature which is now enabled?

Not sure why, because we can’t reproduce this issue. However, we had fixed some bugs for 5GHz repeater, such as inconsistent bandwidth, channel issue and so on.

I meet with the same problem. I take gl-ar750s-3.006-1104.tar firmware and start with clean configuration: the problem remains. A750S prefectly uses 2.4GHz Wi-Fi as WAN, but fails to use 5GHz WiFi as WAN. I have saved config and logs. Here is my /etc/wireless:

config wifi-device ‘radio0’
option type ‘mac80211’

Can you give the logs as well?

iwinfo
logread
dmesg

also, how does the country change to RU?

Oops. Sorry. After I post a message, I remember about iptables rules on this network. So it was a probem with my network configuration. Nevermind.

About ‘RU’ country. I suppose that country code survives reset.

so, you confirm that 5G doesn’t have problem?

Yes. Thanks for device.
