Hi!
Thank you for your great work! I managed to upgrade from 21.02.1 to 21.02.2 on a TP-Link Archer C50 v1, and it went well, with no problems so far.
Thank you very much. Now, 5ghz radio works flawlessly. Any news on DFS support yet?
I have the E5600 and can confirm this. This is not a problem with today’s snapshot without luci
Yes, it works on snapshots. I have been using the 02/28/2022 snapshot. 5 GHz WiFi seems to work a lot better now on the snapshots, almost like it did on stock firmware. However, beam forming and MU-MIMO support is still absent on OpenWrt.
There is a workaround to get 5 GHz WiFi working on the 21.02.2 release, which was shared a few posts above by @dsouza. You can try that on Linksys E5600 and see if it works. You may need to reset the router if it does not work though.
However, the 21.02.2 release has an older WiFi driver from December 2021 for these devices, on which 5 GHz WiFi performance suffers greatly. Latest snapshots have the updated WiFi driver.
TP-LINK TD-W8970, succesfully sysupgraded from 21.02.1 (custom image with imagebuilder) to 21.02.2 (custom image)... thanks.
I just backported the commit that fixes the bootloop on Archer A6/C6 v3 to 21.02. I also backported adding support to Archer C6 v3 to 21.02.
However these changes are only in my fork for now. I will try a pull request to make it into the 21.02 branch so they could be included in the next stable build 21.02.3.
However this is going to be my first pull request, so if any dev or anyone with experience on this please let me know.
Thanks!
It would be preferred to
- use
git cherry-pick -x <hash>the original commits instead of manually backporting as new commits. - use a separate new branch (that is branched off from openwrt-21.02), so that if you receive change requests, you can more easily fix the files/commits and force-push the feature branch. Read PR advice e.g. from https://github.com/openwrt/packages/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#advice-on-pull-requests

Got it. It is my primary router and I was on stock because of this. I am only using it for basic web browsing right now. If I try it on the weekend and if it works I will report back.
Just installed 21.02.2 on my wrt3200acm. Works well as long as you only have one wifi network on the 5 ghz radio. You can create more than one on the 2.4 ghz radio(I have two).
ipq40xx/mikrotik/openwrt-ipq40xx-mikrotik-mikrotik_cap-ac-*
is missing.
That’s only available in master snapshots, not 21.02.
I get below error. I use newifi3.

How to fix it ? Thanks
TP-Link WDR3500v1
upgrade through LuCi from 21.02.1. no reset to defaults (keep seetings).
device doesnt come up after reboot. when rest/wps is pressed while powercycle and keep pushed for a few seconds until the LEDs stop flashing the unit boots into 21.02.2 with all the seetings. when the unit gets rebooted the unit is stuck again.
downrgade to 21.02.1 resolves the problem and everything is back to normal.
Could you please check /etc/config/wireless if you see definitions of both hwmode and band?
Lost 2GHZ Wlan after 12 Days uptime. Cudy WR2100 (Upgrade with keep settings)
Archer C7v2 AccessPoint: no problems so far.
I upgraded my Netgear R7800 with this release. All good so far, both wifi bands work well, no other observed issues so far.
Anyone can help?
