  • Device problem occurs on
    Linksys WRT1900AC

  • Software versions of OpenWrt/LEDE release, packages, etc.
    OpenWrt 18.06.4 r7808-ef686b7292 with ipv6 disabled

  • Steps to reproduce

  • via LuCI with 2g radios enabled on radio0 (2g works as expected)

  • Turn radio1 on with ac mode, Transmit Power auto, Hide ESSID ticked, channel 36, wmm off, Encryption WPA2, Cipher CCMP, Krack countermeasures ticked, Short preamble ticked, Disassociate on low acknowledgement ticked

  • On initial save, a laptop will connect successfully and be able to browse the web -- once a change is made, like changing the channel, access to LuCI is temporarily lost and the 5g light on the unit goes off.

  • Once this occurs, no device can see the 5g SSID anymore.. once access to LuCI comes back, the 5g radio still shows as enabled

Troubleshooting attempted:

  • Changing country code
  • Changing 5g channel
  • Enable/disable WMM mode
  • Restart the 5g interface from LuCI
  • Factory reset and clean setup of 5g

All yield the same issue.

I was able to get 5g operational and seemingly bug-free by using the Community version of OpenWRT from davidc502:
https://dc502wrt.org/

Since I already had OpenWRT installed, I selected the .bin for my router model and ran it as an upgrade.
