Slate AX constantly crashing when connecting client with 5G

Many thanks to kerabite :+1:, now made some progress to this issue. Just to report the debug process.

  1. As for current crash log doesn’t tell enough infomation about the crash.
    We setup up syslog like the following picture,


    After another crash and reboot, get log before crash&reboot here: http://192.168.8.1/logread.txt

The critital info point to the wifi fw bug:

  1. After some research, I found a newer wifi firmware by QCA.
    Please help to try it. download it with web browser by click:
    DownGit

Then upload it to /lib/firmware/IPQ6018 directory, and unzip by

cd /lib/firmware/IPQ6018/
unzip -jo WLAN.HK.2.7.0.1-01744-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1.zip
rm -f WLAN.HK.2.7.0.1-01744-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1.zip
sync
reboot

Seems this is a compatiblilty issue with Roku TV.
