Sitecom WLR-8100 5GHz not working

That is expected.

I though that using the "stable branch" would compile a compatible image with the current kmods, but I missed the vermagic part.

This evening I'll compile again using the config.seed from here: https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01.4/targets/ar71xx/generic/config.seed
So (in theory) this should be 100% compatibile with current stable branch.

However i think that installing normal packages using the "--force-depends" flag could work because the kernel version is the same.

I compiled it with a standard .config file.
Because of this, I didn't include the ath10k driver. So to make 5Ghz working you have to install this two modules: kmod-ath10k and ath10k-firmware-qca988x

Let me know if this is working.

Finally the patch is upstream: https://github.com/lede-project/source/commit/a85db951db31c607f423747842e3d1d102c8fc9a
So from today/tomorrow snapshot builds the 5GHz wireless will be available. :slight_smile:

Moreover the mac address of the interfaces should be the same of the real firmware.

Hopefully a new release comes out soon so I can get my hands on this.

Hi, ill like to try openwrt on this router. Does anyone know if there is currently any bug in openwrt 19.03?. In the wiki i can read that i need to edit some files in order to have the 5ghz network working, is it outdated and i dont need to edit that file anymore? Thx for your time.
