Hello,
i have a R7800 with a fully stock 23.05 image. It is used as a plain AP, so very standard (apart from rising the number of station allowable on the 2.4G radio).
Well, it seems i can't get 160MHz to work. I know this historically was a challenging point for R7800 (when i used it as a router, it was like playing russian roulette at every firmware update), so do i have to give up or i'm missing something on top of plain 23.05?
Thanks
With 160 MHz you are always on a DFS channel and can/will have more interference and the speed increase is not that much on My R7800.
Yes PHY rate is 866 vs 1560 but actual throughput is 660 Mb/s for 80 MHz and 740 for 160 MHz.
So for me not worth it. But perhaps it is for you

hello,
what version are you using to have 160MHz working?
i remember some years ago i could get 160MHz working on a specific NSS version of openwrt, but now that i'm using the R7800 only as AP i'd be glad to have some more performance
I use 23.05.3 NSS build with non CT firmware, maybe CT firmware does better but for me the non CT firmware seems better but I did no do any formal testing so YMMV
it seems that enabling 160MHz was just a matter of changing country code, but i can't get speeds above 500MBits even with nss build
connection with clients is up to 1300mbps.
very strange. i have a 2.5G/500M connection and i can get only this, with both CT and plain ath10k drivers and firmware
cpu usage is close to 0 so honestly i have no idea
Please connect to your OpenWrt device using ssh and copy the output of the following commands and post it here using the "Preformatted text </> " button:
