FS#692 - WLAN AP not working on RasPi (bcm2710 target)
When flashing the brcm2708 / bcm2710 target the WiFi interface gets stuck in “client mode” and the AP will not be able to be brought up.
Some screenshots and a load of discussion here:
https://forum.lede-project.org/t/ap-mode-radio0-in-raspi-3-always-acts-as-a-client-shows-as-wlan0-in-luci/2885
Two more days of tinkering, wifi-up’ing and -down’ing did not bring me further.
I flashed another Pi3 (to exclude a hardware defect) with the same result.
I tried latest snapshot and stable images.
I am happy to help debug – tell me what you need me to do.
Greetings,
–Thomas
I was experiencing the same issue in the past two days.
I feel this is a old bug of OpenWrt because I had met it before. But the latest version of OpenWrt seems resolved this problem.
seems to me, this is related/similiar:

I hit the same issue today, when I make the 64 bit image for RPI3 from master.
I don't see this issue when I use stock LEDE image version (lede-17.01.0-r3205-59508e3-brcm2708-bcm2710-rpi-3-ext4-sdcard.img.gz)
Build from Master:
(SNAPSHOT, r3969-8322dba)
Linux LEDE 4.9.20 #0 SMP Thu Apr 13 17:22:23 2017 aarch64 GNU/Linux
same to me,
I build LEDE form two way:
1) master(source code)
2) image builder
both SNAPSHOT, r3986-e1d433b
I could narrow it down to commit 8301e613655c2d95fa5430a1a57d92d966fdc70b:
https://git.lede-project.org/?p=source.git;a=commit;h=8301e613655c2d95fa5430a1a57d92d966fdc70b
If I revert this commit it works.
I've suggested the following fix to nbd:

https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/noltari/staging.git;a=commitdiff;h=07efeeaa81111e877d18f0279e9db65bc0956cbf
Is this still incomplete? Does 50% mean that it works in 64 bit LEDE?
The latest LEDE img that came out for brcm 2710 (rpi3) a few hours ago says its 64 bit so, since this is one of 2 total raspi 3 operating systems released in 64 bit (The only other is Gentoo 64 for rpi 3 that came out ~1 month ago i think) I would love to give it a try.
The only thing holding me back is i currently use my pi3 as an wireless AP with Librelec. They have a really cool setting where you can share the pi eth0 port with the devices wlan0 to create a wifi ap.
I think they use the debian package "connman" as the backend for this functionality
I've noticed a bug about the country code setting in OpenWRT does not work in RPi, please see these 2 links.
