Netgear WAX202: the WDS client setup is still non-functional on 5 GHz. The client associates, but no traffic flows between the client and br-lan. No such problem on 2.4 GHz.
Details:
Tested 23.05.0-rc1 on Netgear WAX202 which is used as a WDS client and repeater. Result: WiFi did not come up correctly. Even though both the 5 GHz AP and STA interfaces are bridged to br-lan, and the STA interface associates, packets are not bridged between them and the Ethernet interface. Bringing the 5 GHz STA down and replacing it with a 2.4 GHz STA works (but this might be a WPA2 vs WPA3 issue, as my 2.4 GHz network uses WPA2).
Custom packages, at least one of them actually unneeded:

Both. Sorry, cannot provide logs, as I have already reverted, but I will try again now.
I think it is my mistake, as wpad does not actually support SAE. I will try again with wpad-wolfssl and wpad-openssl (previously I used wpad-openssl). This cannot be true because the STA associated.

EDIT: Is the 6 Mbit/s TX rate a coincidence?
