Hello everyone hope everyone is good.
Today i woke up and saw my internet was struggling after a bit of looking into it 165 no channel randomly stopped working. It was working fine before but randomly it isn't. 161 no channel is still working perfectly but i use to get more range in 165 no channel. Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?
what's the country code in the OpenWRT wifi config ?

As i live in Bangladesh i have set it to bd it isn't working now. As i have a rooted device i changed my phones wifi region to usa and the routers region to us still have doesn't work but lower channels works perfectly

Channel 165 must use a bandwidth of 20.
it used to work on 80mhz just fine before
The band plan is now enforced by the driver. 165 is a single channel left over at the end of the band. Operating 80 MHz is not allowed as it would overlap the group of 4 channels 149-161.
Try between
80MHz 149
40MHz auto (2 options)
20MHz auto (5 options)
Stay with whichever is faster in practical measurement.
Likely if you see other houses around - the permitted frequencies are quite clogged.
thanks for the info
damn didn’t know that
