Hi,
I try to get a working mesh between a Linksys WRT1900ACS and a AVM Fritz!Box 7412. On both devices I've installed OpenWrt 19.07.0-rc2.
I've installed wpad and have the following config on both devices:
config wifi-iface 'default_radio0'
option device 'radio0'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option wpa_disable_eapol_key_retries '1'
option key 'gfhfghf'
option ssid 'wifi-ap'
option encryption 'psk-mixed'
config wifi-iface 'wifinet1'
option network 'lan'
option device 'radio0'
option mode 'mesh'
option mesh_id 'wifi-mesh'
option key 'gfhfghfghf8'
option encryption 'psk2/aes'
But Luci still shows "Wireless is not associated". On the FritzBox I've found the following logs after enabling the mesh device:
