Has anyone had issues with max associated station errors? It seems the ath10k qca9984 ct firmware is limited to 32 connections. I've followed some of the guides and hints in this thread: Ath10k-ct driver supports only 32 devices
This seems to work, but only for the 5Ghz radio, the 2.4Ghz still has a Maximum assiociated stations in AP mode: 32 according to iw list.
