Hi Jacek,
summarising all information from the mailinglist the following
configuration should work:
1. select CONFIG_PACKAGE_ATH_DFS=y
2. if ath9k select CONFIG_ATH_USER_REGD=y
if ath10k deactivate CONFIG_ATH_USER_REGD
3. compile current OpenWRT trunk
4. Configuration
---------
config wifi-device radio0
option type mac80211
option channel 104
option hwmode 11a
option path 'pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0'
option htmode HT20
option country 'DE'
config wifi-iface
option device radio0
option network lan
option mode ap
option ssid OpenWrt
option encryption none
---------
If this setting does not work for you please do the following.
- on AP exec "wifi down"
- on AP exec "logread -f" (on a second ssh session)
- on AP exec "wifi up"
- send us the log output + "iw phy0 info" output + information about
your hardware
