OpenWRT 19.07.6, Archer C7 V5.
In LuCI, both radios are showing as not active. One is a 2.4ghz, the other is a 5ghz.
radio0 - Generic 802.11bg
Device is not active
radio1 - Generic 802.11bg
Device is not active
here is my /etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option hwmode '11a'
option path 'pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0'
option htmode 'VHT80'
option channel 'auto'
option country 'US'
config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option hwmode '11g'
option path 'platform/ahb/18100000.wmac'
option htmode 'HT20'
option channel 'auto'
option country 'US'
Trimmed the interface lines.
and in my logs I see multiple lines for radio0 and radio1 stating:
Mon Jan 25 17:18:53 2021 daemon.notice netifd: radio0 (1070): Could not find PHY for device 'radio0'
Mon Jan 25 17:18:53 2021 daemon.notice netifd: radio1 (1071): Could not find PHY for device 'radio1'
This could be a package issue. Seemed like it broke after updating a package, although unsure.
