I found strange quistion in ATH10K STA mode,flower is my wireless configer
config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option channel '36'
option hwmode '11a'
option path 'pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0'
option htmode 'VHT80'
option doth '0'
option txpower '15'
option band '5G'
config wifi-iface 'default_radio0'
option device 'radio0'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'GL-AR750-1b4-5G'
option encryption 'psk-mixed'
option key 'goodlife'
option ifname 'wlan0'
config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option channel '11'
option path 'platform/qca953x_wmac'
option htmode 'HT20'
option hwmode '11ng'
config wifi-iface 'default_radio1'
option device 'radio1'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'GL-AR750-1b4'
option encryption 'psk-mixed'
option key 'goodlife'
option wds '1'
option ifname 'wlan1'
config wifi-iface 'sta'
option device 'radio0'
option ifname 'wlan-sta'
option network 'wwan'
option mode 'sta'
option ssid 'GL-AR750-test-5G'
option key 'goodlife'
option encryption 'psk-mixed'
I need connect to 'GL-AR750-test-5G', follower is wpa_supplicant-wlan-sta.conf
network={
scan_ssid=1
ssid="GL-AR750-test-5G"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="goodlife"
}
run command 'wifi',Yes,I connect to 'GL-AR750-test-5G' is successfull,follower is related information

Seems this is a problem of Ath10K. Ath9k doesn't have this problem.
In the stock firmware of GL.iNet, there is a daemon program to deal with this problem and shut the sta down.
