Hi all,
I made so many attempts that in the last message I think I pasted the wrong /etc/config/wireless file. I am sorry about this.
This is my current configuration, running on OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r24054-fe10f97439 / LuCI Master git-23.266.27574-7744ad0 version
config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option phy 'wl0'
option channel '11'
option band '2g'
option htmode 'HT20'
option country 'IT'
option cell_density '0'
config wifi-iface 'default_radio0'
option device 'radio0'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'OpenWrt'
option encryption 'psk2'
option key 'xxxxx'
config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option phy 'wl1'
option channel '36'
option band '5g'
option htmode 'VHT20'
option cell_density '0'
config wifi-iface 'default_radio1'
option device 'radio1'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'OpenWrt_5G'
option encryption 'psk2'
option key 'xxxxxx'
And I still see the issue in the luci interface.
In the syslog I see the usual messages:
