FS#1133 - Can't set channels 12 and 13 on Raspberry Pi 3 in AP config #6054
Comments
127.0.0.1: I also have this problem (it is affected on internal Broadcom wireless card on Raspberry Pi 3 B and 3 B+). The country code setting in OpenWRT does not change the actual country code transmitted in Wireless signal as well as the limitation in each country. The only possible way to change the country code is to boot the latest Raspbian on the Raspberry Pi, use raspi-config to set the correct country code, and go back to OpenWRT. |
127.0.0.1: Please note that some countries forbid the use of Channel 12 and 13, and the country code issue is also prevalent in 5Ghz band on Raspberry Pi 3 B+. Without setting the correct country code in Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 3 B+, the 5Ghz band won't even start in OpenWRT. |
127.0.0.1: The BSSID info in my screenshots is omitted for privacy reason. Pay attention to the country code. |

artynet: any update on this ? I am experiencing the issue on the latest trunk running kernel v4.19.69 as well... Thank you very much in advance ! Kind Regards |
Noltari: Hi, Can you try replacing your /lib/firmware/brcm files with the ones provided by Cypress?
BTW, you should set your country code to a proper value (a country with those channels available). I've contacted Cypress to see if I can redistribute their binaries but I didn't get an answer yet: Best regards, |
artynet: unfortunately the problem still persists....my country has been set via UCI commit :
and with the iw command :
As far as it concerns the firmware, I replaced the entire folder with the whole downloaded repository. I think we should closely review the mac80211 openwrt custom patches both for the general subsystem and for the broadcomm driver. Kind Regards |

It is not possible to set up channel 12/13 on Raspberry Pi 3 in Wifi AP configuration. I get error "brcmfmac: brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap: Set Channel failed: chspec=4109, -20".
Tested on 17.01.1 and latest snapshot (r5217-098afa1).
PS Raspbian works properly on 13 channel as AP.
