hey guys yesterday i flashed 24.10 stable on tp-link archer c6 v2.

going from stock ?

see warning in https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/archer_c6_v2

try 24.10rc7, TP-EAP245, error log. ath10k - #6 by frollic, using the C6v2 image, of course.

It is documented in release notes, get back to 23.05.5 and wait for 24.10.1

is it ok?

[frollic]

looks sane, yes.

[Aisfkhan]

now should i download the sysupgrade image from the same page and do the sysupgrade in the router?

[frollic]

yes,

might want to export the settings, not sure the wifi config part is interchangeable between the two drivers.

[Aisfkhan]

no problem i will set it up from scratch like a newly flash openwrt.

[Aisfkhan]

i flashed rc7 as per your instruction now there is no 5g radio

[frollic]

when you should downgrade again, as @brada4 advised you to.

[Aisfkhan]

Okay for downgrading I should flash the factory image than sys upgrade or just flash the 23.05.05 sys upgrade?

[frollic]

you should be able to sysupgrade again.

[Aisfkhan]

Okay thankyou so much

[brada4]

A good practice is to make a config backup if sysupgrade does not work out right and you need to downgrade or reset configuration.
