Tried the above advice and removed ath10k-firmware-qca988x-ct and installed ath10k-firmware-qca988x - same results.

PS - DISMISS button for opkg update in the GUI is horse-shit. Waste of my clicks. Plz at least give auto-dismiss.

Edit: ping on 5GHz is a TON better when something is using/saturating the 5GHz link, e.g. TimeMachine backup is ongoing then boom. Stable:
