18.06.2 - TP-Link Archer c2600 v1.1 - log errors

Installing and Using OpenWrt

I hope someone can give me some insight to the system and kernel errors I have.

Recent sysupgrade from 18.06.1 => 18.06.2 (current release build), the TP-Link Archer c2600 v1.1 is behaving itself nicely :grin: everything seems to be doing what it should be.

However I have noticed errors, and even though some might just be informational / logs that have appeared because another process hadn't executed yet, I'd like to know if any shouldn't have occurred, and if there's a reason / possibility to mend.

System log:

Thanks Rob

No such file or directory

I take it this file/directory should be in a read-only firmware location?
Wonder why it's looking for it if it doesn't exist?

I've done more searching and found this: Wifi Log: iw phy phy0 set antenna all all which explains the above errors.

Very common, as the driver looks for firmware in various locations and reports when it doesn't find one, but doesn't as clearly indicate when it successfully loads one out of its prioritized list.

From an Archer C7 v2, for example:

Thanks @jeff , so this is an informative log then.

So the only remaining errors are these:

Are these even worth being concerned about?
