MF286D Wifi N + AC connections restart router

santutti · January 22, 2025, 11:01pm

Hi all! I am new here. I got in October a second hand mf286d TIM branded, to use the 4G LTE Modem + Wifi AC.

I followed the amazing guide and installed the 23.05 via serial. I'm not an expert, but I am familiar with basic networking, and I learned a lot on the way, I'm so excited! I take this moment to thank you for being part of this amazing community!
I managed to (after a lot of reading, watching YouTube videos, troubleshooting and translating polish and Italian to English and ChatGPT) successfully install OpenWRT, and have 120Mbps with 4G via ethernet.
I read about doing an update to the firmware to B12 (it is possible using openwrt without the zteframework?) and What is this exactly, just the modem firmware, or a firmware for the router to avoid openwrt?
Edit: I found my modem Information

Modem type	ZTE MF286D
Revision / Firmware	BD_TIMITMF286DMODULEV1.0.0B09

I still have some problems I could not manage to solve, maybe someone experienced something similar or know what can be going on?

Wifi connections make my router reboot constantly. When my computer is connected via N with WPA2PSK AES (I learned that mixed security can turn things unstable), the connection drops every couple of minutes. When my computer tries to connect with the AC interface (with or without security), the router becomes unstable in a constant reboot, until I force stop reconnecting.
Current packages used are
luci-proto-qmi
ath10k-board-qca4019
ath10k-firmware-qca4019-ct
kmod-ath
kmod-ath10k-ct

With a fresh install, OpenWRT public wifi networks work perfectly. As soon as I install luci-proto-qmi, Wifi AC connections make the router unstable and to reboot instantly.

The other 2 things are related to performance. My Carrier supports 200Mbps (tested sim with my phone).
a) When using my MF286D, Internet speed via Ethernet is limited to 120MBps. How can I increase it?
b) With Wifi N, speed is limited to 15Mbps...

Thank you so much!
Best,
Santutti

You can try swapping 2 ath10 packages to mainline (without -ct)

What is in

ubus call system board
cat /etc/config/wireless
cat /etc/config/network

use code button </> and write over end half of mac/ip addresses and wifi keys/names

Set vht80 and remove power limit. IF it still crashes swap the driver and firmware.
(network config looks ok to me)

santutti · January 22, 2025, 11:49pm

I just swapped both ath10 packages for mainline, and rebooted. It didn't work. I created a new AC Wifi, and the same as before happened. As soon as it is connected the router enters a reboot loop

Set up a wired ssh session and start" logread -f
Enable or restart wifi ans ttry to connect. Paste few last lines from log.

santutti · January 23, 2025, 12:04am

Just did this. Channel for AC to 80Mhz, and put Driver default for Tx power, with the Main Drivers. Same issue persists, rebooting in loop upon connecting to the wifi.

Now the following is the logged (I'm missing to try the above with the original ath10k drivers still)

brada4 · January 23, 2025, 12:08am

I have seen only wifi adapter resetting on disconnect, not whole device, somebody wiser should come by.

santutti · January 23, 2025, 12:13am

Mhm, when I try to log in to LuCi wired as soon as I see the wifi disconnect, It doesn't let me, only after 2 minutes...

I also noticed that for the ath10k There are more options:

smallbuffers for the Kmod (for both Ct and main)
And for the firmware: -ct-full-htt and -ct-htt versions... Any idea what combination may be safest?

Thanks again for your help @brada4!

santutti · January 23, 2025, 12:34am

I asked ChatGPT for help to compare the log of the restart of the Wifi AC interface, with both packages.
It said that the original ones (-CT) are slightly better as there are less permission errors. Yet, it identified the following

peer-unmap-event: unknown peer id 0 appears twice, which could indicate a minor issue related to peer mapping.
Firmware lacks feature flag indicating a retry limit of > 2 is OK, requested limit: 4 suggests a potential firmware limitation, although this may not critically affect functionality.
There is a warning in the script: Variable 'data' does not exist or is not an array/object.
The interface eventually stabilizes and becomes operational (AP-ENABLED).

Im sharing this in case anyone is curious. However, despite the log result, upon connecting to Wifi, the connection drops, and the router is immediately inaccesible via ethernet.

brada4 · January 23, 2025, 12:37am

smallbuffers is for 64mb devices, certainly not for one client in 256mb

santutti · January 23, 2025, 8:41am

Also, an update here. I was using it with wifi N and it seems that while doing a Speedtest with speedtest.net, then the connection with the router dropped. As soon as I disconnect the wifi, I plug ethernet and I can login via LuCi.
With ethernet everything seems to work fine...

I tried checking logs (this happened 8:35), not sure why is happening this

@IceG do you still have a mf286d as I see your custom Openwrt snapshot builds stopped on the 20th October last year:

I'm trying to remember if there was a known issue with 23.05 builds and that's why most people used Snapshot until the 24.10 release candidates came out for ipq4019 devices.

santutti · January 23, 2025, 3:05pm

Ohh, thank you so much for tagging @4IceG! I tried your snapshot in my router. It has so many nice features (such as the Internet Status in Overview). I had problems with it also, and I could not troubleshoot installing packages as it was from snapshot, so I am now using 23.05+your packages now =) for the modem.

I know that in 4IceG's snapshot the ath drivers are the -ct ones, with version slightly newer... kmod-ath10k-ct - 6.6.35.2024.03.03~eb3f488a-r1 instead of 5.5 and ath10k-board-qca4019 - 20240513-r1 instead of 2023...

is there a way to get these? (can even this be the problem)?

@brada4, OpenWrt 24.10.0-rc6 r28388-58d0057481 helped with the Wifi N not crashing when doing a speedtest, THANK YOU! However it did crash (the wifi) after a few minutes...

The wifi AC still crashed upon connecting. I think the router doesn't restart, but rather the wifi crashes...

These are logs for when the wifi N crashed...

How familiar, that is (wfm) solved by swapping ath10k both pieces.

santutti · February 3, 2025, 8:46am

Hello! I have been trying to find a solution after getting the release candidate 7.

My computer now manages to connect via wifi AC, but after a speedtest it crashes.

I am using now RC7, and the non-ct kmod and firmware drivers. I also ensured the wifi network is in the the br-lan network, DCHP assigns 8.8.8.8 as DNS configured the firewall so that LAN has internet.

The following system log appears:
