Wait, USA works?
(Kinda difficult to discuss your illegal configuration.)
Can you provide a log with the correct country setting (while using 2.4 or wireed to access the device)?
Details and config please.

Try setting channel 36 and IN instead of auto.
yes it works if do it manually it works smoothly
OK...thanks for the clarification.
How long are you waiting?
Log please?
here is a video of the issue
I saw the video.
Same questions:
The video doesn't show the log, and what you show usually displays when no client is connected.
Some countries require you to wait a few minutes, depending on channel.
i wait for the time that usually take to start a wifi
i have tested with usa in that case it take 10sec to start but for india it never starts
how can i share logs can you help me please?
logread
(Or go to the logs menu on the LuCI web GUI and copy/paste)
Lucky. I assumed you waited at least 5 minutes.
Feel free to use channel 36 if you don't wish to wait.
