I have a fresh install of 22.03.0 r19685 on a Netgear R8000 and am configuring the WLANs - I've got networks working on radio1 and radio2 but when I try to edit or add networks on radio0 I get this error:
TypeError: chan.options[0] is undefined
Any suggestions how to fix?
sc84647,
The error is probably due to differences between the 2 radio settings.
I found: https://github.com/openwrt/luci/issues/5951
Where is stated: delete the /etc/config/wireless and reboot
During a reboot the file will be made again (if not exist).
Then try configuring the WLANs.

could be a drivers limit, Broadcom?
OK tried that, the file does get created again but I still can't edit the interface or add a new interface on radio0.
I found this issue:
which led me to look at the output of uci show wireless:

But I'm not sure where to go from here.

sc84647,
The issue you found, looks the same, but is on other hardware (not broadcom).
Your device is a Broadcom, and has already some issues: https://openwrt.org/meta/infobox/broadcom_wifi
I found a Broadcom device (rpi3b) with the same issue: https://github.com/openwrt/luci/issues/5937
Maybe add your HW-info and the requested files into that issue, which is still 'open'?
And could you add the info requested by bricco1981 to your next reply?
Output of: iw phy0 info
Do you use wolfssl? Then you should check: https://openwrt.org/advisory/2022-10-04-1
Make sure you use wolfSSL 5.5.1 or higher.
Check this with: opkg list-installed | grep wolfssl
Although I doubt this has anything to do with your error, but just to be sure.
DG.

you was not really clear what you are trying to do. ap/sta dual ap, or just really trying edit the config
Ah ok - yeah I’m trying to either configure an AP using each of the three radios (which you can do using the stock firmware), or understand why that’s not possible. I think I managed to get all three working using DD-WRT (albeit with a car-crash of other issues with that firmware), I probably don’t understand enough about the whole Broadcom driver / proprietary / closed source issue to get my head around why this doesn’t work fully. If it really just isn’t possible I’ll update the Wiki page for this model to set expectations for future adopters of OpenWrt. For me having two radios is fine!
so you have tree radio and only two works?
so you are trying to bring radio0 up for an access point?
if so you can only use one of this channels on this radio: 149,153,157,161,165.
look at the output of iw phy0 info, other channels will not work
and i see you have it on channel 36
Yes the router has three radios (one 2.4GHz and two 5GHz).
OK I tried manually editing into /etc/config/wireless to add:
option band '5g'
option country 'GB'
option htmode 'HT20'
option channel '153'
rebooted, and the web UI now lets me edit the network on radio0 but I don't see the SSID on client devices. In dmesg I do see:
[ 995.057576] ieee80211 phy0: brcmf_cfg80211_start_ap: Set Channel failed: chspec=53401, -52
iw reg get
iw dev
show that please
option country 'GB'
to make it work i think you should set US
Yes setting option country to 'US' does indeed make it work, and I can connect to the AP.
Here's the output from those two commands when the option country is 'GB':
