Flint 2 miss 2.4 Wi-Fi settings

Router

flint 2, 4.8.3 stable

add to `wireless` config couple parameters:

option channels '1-10'
option proxy_arp '1'
option multicast_to_unicast '0'

and time to time I see how 2.4 network work on 13th channel, and arp proxyng stop working, after manual reboot (restart wireless doesn’t help) - proxying work, but channel can still leave above 10

Is this issue can be walktrought or I miss some solution?

Hi,

The stock firmware on the Flint 2 uses a closed-source wireless driver provided by the MTK SDK, which does not support the channels configuration option.

You may want to consider using OpenWRT 24 maintained by us with the GL UI and open-source wireless drivers, or a vanilla OpenWRT build instead.

so one day it supports and next not?)

It should be completely unsupported.
However, since the channel setting is currently set to auto, it will automatically switch between channels 1–13 (depending on the configured country code).

and what with proxy_arp?

Sorry for the late reply.

After checking the MTK SDK–related code, it appears that proxy_arp is also confirmed to be unsupported.

As mentioned earlier, if you require these, please consider using op24 or vanilla OpenWRT.
